State-of-the-Art Energy Related Technologies in Japan 2021

Dear Colleagues,

In Japan, the sustainable development of economy, energy, and the environment has become an important issue of global concern since 2000. A consensus has already been established regarding the development of a low carbon economy. Japan is designing and implementing low-emission development strategies in 2021. Recent advances in technology and policy in Japan 2021 will allow renewable energy, clean energy, and energy efficiency to play major roles in displacing fossil fuels and meeting global energy demand while reducing carbon dioxide emissions. Renewable and clean energy technologies are being rapidly commercialized and, in conjunction with efficiency gains, can achieve far greater emissions reductions than either could independently.

This Special Issue will provide a comprehensive overview on the state-of-the-art energy-related technologies in Japan. Research articles are invited, which will provide a consolidated, up-to-date perspective in energy-related areas. The Special Issue will publish full research papers and reviews. Potential topics include but are not limited to the topics outlined in the keywords.
