Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The transition to sustainable energy systems is essential to reducing climate change and achieving global environmental and economic goals, and this Special Issue aims to explore the interconnections between energy economics, policy-making, and technological innovation in the context of environmental sustainability. The topics of interest include energy transition policies, renewable energy integration, cost–benefit analysis of sustainable technologies, and the socio-economic effects of decarbonization policies.
This Special Issue calls for submissions that critically examine policy regimes, market forces, investment schemes, and interdisciplinary models supporting low-carbon and resilient energy futures. Through the convergence of insights from engineering, economics, public policy, and environmental science, the Special Issue seeks to result in a thorough examination of sustainable energy development.
It will complement the journal's objectives by promoting holistic sustainability assessment, implementation, and monitoring approaches, and presenting tools and case studies that can aid decision-makers in government, academia, and industry.
