Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The coal measure resources are oil and gas generated by coal, carbonaceous shale and dark shale in the coal measure’s strata. They include continuous-type coalbed methane, shale gas, tight resources, in situ conversion hydrocarbon and trap-type coal-bearing resources. Huge in reserves, the resources of the coal measure are significant to the global energy supply. However, the immoderate utilization of the coal measure’s resources also raises severe concerns about increased greenhouse gases and environmental issues. Meeting the carbon neutrality target is delivering unprecedented momentum for CCUS, which is one of the few solutions to tackle the emissions from fossil fuels. Thus, this Special Issue is proposed to discuss the coal measure’s resources and CCUS, to provide some guidance for the green and sustainable development of fossil fuels. The content of this Special Issue will focus on:
- The geological evaluation of coal measure resources;
- The development of technology regarding coal measure resources;
- Carbon emission characteristics and environmental protections during the development of coal measure resources;
- Key clean coal technologies (CCTs) and the in situ conversion process (ICP) of coal or the like;
- The advances in the development of coal measure resources, CCUS and enhanced oil recovery (EOR);
- The sustainable development of coal measure resources in meeting the carbon neutrality

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 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
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.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
