10 Years Energies - Horizon 2028

Dear Colleagues,

Energies (ISSN 1996-1073; CODEN: ENERGA) http://www.mdpi.com/journal/energies) has reached a milestone: it is now 10 years since our journal was launched.

In celebration of this special occasion, the Energies editorial team have decided to publish a special issue called "10 Years of Energies – Horizon 2028". We would like to invite you to contribute a comprehensive review article or an original research paper for peer-review and possible publication. The details for this special issue can be found at:

http://www.mdpi.com/journal/energies/special_issues/A_Decade_of_Horizon_2028

The last ten years of technological and theoretical advancements in Energies have been extraordinary. We now want to look to the future. For example, with the development and application of new materials, Big Data analytics, Industry 4.0, Internet of Things and AI being applied to the Energy sector and its relationship to areas such as electric vehicle design, charging infrastructure and renewable energy networks, we predict the pace of change in the next ten years to be even greater

The purpose of this special issue is to publish a set of articles that typify the very best insightful and influential investigations or theories that will form the foundation of the next ten year’s technological change. We would like to include articles that will form the new benchmark against which other articles are measured; this benchmark is, of course, a moving target as Energies continues to advance to new frontiers. We expect these articles to be widely read and highly influential within the field.

There is no restriction on the subject areas for this special issue. Energies readers and authors are encouraged to send their very best work to be showcased. The key criteria for manuscript acceptance will be novelty and the potential breadth and contribution to the field. Manuscripts with experimental implementation and empirical proofs are also encouraged.
