Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the developed world, both the consumption of energy and the environmental load continue to increase. One consequence of this is global warming, with buildings contributing significantly to the emission of greenhouse gases. Therefore, this Special Issue aims to publish papers that enhance the energy performance of buildings based on recent research results.
The technology utilized to save energy in buildings mainly includes thermal insulation, renewable energy sources and, to some extent, energy storage. Energy consumption is slightly affected by the control of heating–cooling systems and the value of comfort parameters.
In order to enhance the energy efficiency of buildings, we invite our colleagues to participate in this Special Issue by presenting their new research results in scientific papers.
We welcome the submission of innovative articles, reviews, case studies, analytical work on the optimization of numerical energy, as well as assessment papers concerning the construction of energy-efficient buildings.

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.
