Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The 31th International Conference on Efficiency, Cost, Optimization, Simulation and Environmental Impact of Energy Systems – ECOS 2018 was held from June 17th to 21st 2018 in Guimarães, Portugal. ECOS 2018 was organized by a local organizing committee from Universities of Minho, Porto and Lisbon (IST).
This special issue includes original work that contributes to the knowledge of energy field and that offers broad implications for energy efficiency and renewable energies. The selected papers from ECOS 2018 in this special issue cover several areas of research: energy and power production; conventional and alternative fuel sources; energy efficiency and conversion; energy and environment issues; energy policy and management. Submissions containing novel elements, approaches, methods or results are expected to improve the energy utilization.
