Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are delighted to invite you to publish your up-to-date research results in this Special Issue entitled “Renewable and Sustainable Energy for Sustainable Development”.
Climate change and the constantly growing challenges in the energy sector around the world require serious action for the broad application of renewable energy resources in the endeavor of countries to boost their overall share of energy achieved from renewables. Effective energy creation and smart energy organization are crucial concerns in convening the worldwide aim of 100% energy from sustainable feedstocks by 2030.
Accordingly, researchers in the renewable energy field are attempting to discover solutions to meet to all of the challenges that the world is confronting today and will in the future in the energy field. Hence, subjects such as the superior usage of sustainable energy, efficient sustainable resources, growth of energy conversion productivity, and energy management are various objectives which certainly cause a major dilemma for scientists and inventors in the energy sector. Moreover, sun, wind, water, biofuel, biomass, and geothermal drives are the key sources of sustainable energy, but these sources still have some limitations that hinder their widespread use. So, to increase the usability of these various sustainable sources, researchers need to put much collaborative effort into overcoming these problems.
This Special Issue aims to gather new study findings and novel techniques in the sector of renewable and sustainable energy for sustainable development, covering a wide variety of topics associated with renewable energy sources, energy production techniques, the energy management, including, but not limited to:
- Biofuel production and its applications;
- Hydrogen production and its application;
- Advanced combustion techniques;
- Algae biofuel production and its application;
- Renewable energy potential and forecasting;
- Design and optimization of renewable energy schemes;
- Renewable hybrid energy schemes;
- Renewable energy conversion efficiency;
- Energy management;
- Renewable energy communities;
- Carbon sequestration.
The submission of review papers and articles based on multidisciplinary research is also encouraged.
