Sustainable Technology and Policy: Energy Transformation under Decarbonization

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue addresses the energy transition under decarbonisation conditions, understood as the implementation of an ambitious policy of reducing emissions and a stronger link with both the electricity market and the primary fuel market.

The key element of the transformations is sustainable technology, which supports the development of innovative solutions in line with Poland’s Responsible Development Strategy.

Undoubtedly, these issues have a significant impact on the functioning of both the global electricity and primary fuel markets.

All this makes it necessary to look anew and in a completely different way at the changes taking place on these markets, especially in terms of raw material prices, the structure of energy mixes, and modern technologies for obtaining and processing natural resources.

In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:

Markets for primary fuels; electricity and renewable energy; current state and development prospects for energy markets; energy transformation; modern technologies for the extraction, processing and use of natural resources and the production of their substitutes, forecasting prices and modelling dependencies on energy markets.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.
