Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The transition to clean energy systems is important for dealing with global challenges such as climate change and energy poverty. Nowadays, significant developments in clean energy systems are taking place, including advances in renewable energy generation, energy storage and grid integration. In addition, the adoption of hydrogen energy, advances in battery technology and the use of artificial intelligence in energy systems have played important roles in reducing environmental pollution and promoting sustainable development. Despite significant progress, the development of clean energy systems remains constrained by economic, political and technological issues. The best way to promote the development of clean energy systems in the future has gained the attention of many countries and people.
We invite you to contribute to the Special issue “Clean Energy Systems—Current State and Future Perspectives”. This Special Issue will support the development and transformation of clean energy systems. In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Clean energy use and consumption;
- Development of clean energy technologies;
- Clean energy transmission and conversion;
- Optimization of clean energy supply networks;
- Clean energy and economic policy;
- Clean energy and regional development.
