Green Energy Transmission: The Future of Sustainable Development

Dear Colleagues,

Energy is used to uphold a certain standard of living, to ensure national and strategic interests, and to investigate energy alternatives. Green energy transmission infrastructure is the backbone of the world's power system, ensuring efficient, reliable, and affordable electricity for homes, industries, and communities. In 2015, the Paris Agreement set a production cap on fossil fuels to keep global warming below 1.5 °C.  Green energy transmissions are cost-effective and critical for meeting the sustainable development goals of 100% clean and efficient electricity by 2030 as well as achieving a carbon-neutral economy by 2050.

Therefore, this Special Issue sheds light on the future and sustainable development of green energy transmission. This Special Issue welcomes papers related to clean energy (geothermal energy, hydropower, solar energy, wind energy), nuclear energy, low-carbon technologies, and energy transition in all sectors (industries, agriculture, transport and households). We also welcome both qualitative and quantitative research, as well as empirical and theoretical works.
