Improvement of Energy Efficiency and Reduction of Air Pollutant Emission in the Transportation Field

Dear Colleagues,

Public transportation is progressing day by day. Power systems for on-road and non-road vehicles are also evolving. Various efforts are also being made to reduce air pollution from vehicles. Various combustion technologies, vehicle technologies, and after-treatment devices for reduction of emission are being introduced to meet the tightened regulations.

In this Special Issue, we would like to provide our readers with various research results on the recently developed technologies to improve the energy efficiency and to reduce air pollutant emissions in the transportation field.

As Guest Editor of the Energies Special Issue on “Improvement of Energy Efficiency and Reduction of Air Pollutant Emission in the Transportation Field”, I warmly invite you to submit your relevant research results in the field for consideration for publication.

The topics that may be addressed in this Special Issue include (but are not limited to):

• High-performance vehicle technology;
• (Plug-in) hybrid electric vehicles for the improvement of energy efficiency;
• Assessment of emissions from various vehicles;
• Emission reduction technologies including after-treatment devices;
• Application of alternative fuels to vehicle or engine systems;
• In-use vehicle evaluation using PEMS (portable emission measurement system);
• Life cycle analysis of various power systems or fuels.

Prof. Dr. Suhan Park
