A section of Sustainability (ISSN 2071-1050).
Section Information
Energy Sustainability aims to provide a leading multidisciplinary platform on innovation, research, technology development and demonstration in the fields of sustainable energy deployment. Sustainable energy deployment has a multilateral impact at local to global scales with social, ecological, health, and economic consequences, directly linked with renewable energy, new fuels such as hydrogen, energy conversion, energy transmission, energy storage, transportation, building energy consumption, smart grid, etc.
Energy Sustainability welcomes research articles, conceptual analysis articles, review articles, and commentaries related to energy resources, technologies, applications, deployment options and advanced techniques in support to achieving Carbon Neutrality and Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SDG 7) of ensuring access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all. The multi-disciplinary scope of “Energy Sustainability” includes but not limited to:
- Energy resources, technologies, conversion, management and storage;
- Energy sustainability options and green energy exploitation;
- Renewable energy applications and techniques;
- Smart and innovative energy technologies and applications;
- Green technology options and climate change;
