Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Guest Editors are inviting submissions for a Special Issue of Energies on "Alternative Fuels and Their Application for Transport - Recent Research and Challenges". Greenhouse gas emission and other air pollution from transport are propelling to transition to new alternative fuels. New alternative fuels with reduced carbon footprint and reduced fossil fuels depletion will be crucial. It is important to analyze for alternative fuels wih the full life cycle. Very promising alternative fuel is hydrogen, which play an important role in transport. However, the issue of the color of hydrogen must be considered: grey, blue and green. Topics of this Special Issue include, but not limited to: assessment of various alternative fuels apllication in transport with the life cycle approach, various aspects of fuel use, including economic, social and environmental aspects and the importance of alternative fuels for sustainable development. Electric vehicles and fuel-cell-powered vehicles are promising alternatives to internal combustion engine vehicles. This Special Issue invites authors to show their research of alternative fuels development in transport .
This Special Issue invites papers on original research and reviews focused on Application of Alternative Fuels in Transport, advanced propulsion systems, and alternative fuels, which can offer environmental and economic advantages in transport. The aim of this Special Issue is to show knowledge and research of alternative fuels application in transport.
