Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the continuous deterioration of the global climate, carbon neutrality has become a basic consensus in the international community. The development of sustainable building energy is becoming an important part of achieving the carbon neutrality strategy and reducing carbon emissions. Over the past decade, a large number of studies on advanced heat pump technologies have been dedicated to reducing the carbon emissions of modern buildings. To further promote the green technologies of zero-carbon buildings, this special issue on "Advanced Heat Pump Technologies for Building Energy Conservation" is launched, aiming to provide novel research results in the field of Heat Pump. Original research papers on critical reviews, experiments and theoretical studies of technological innovation and development in building energy conservation applications are welcome.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
