Clean Energy Technologies and Assessment, 2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

This Topic, titled “Clean Energy Technologies and Assessment, 2nd Edition”, invites submissions on all aspects and scales of technologies for clean and efficient energy generation and utilization that reduce the environmental impact of energy production and use, from laboratory research to commercial applications.

This Topic’s scope covers, but is not limited to, numerical and experimental investigations into technological development, improvement, and integration, alongside case studies and analyses related to regulations, standards, and policies, covering the following areas:

• Clean energy conversion, utilization, and storage;
• Modeling, simulation, and computational optimization of energy systems;
• Experimental analysis of energy systems;
• Renewable energy sources and technologies;
• Alternative fuel technologies;
• Advanced energy conversion technologies;
• Conventional energy sources in energy transition;
• Energy storage technologies;
• Cogeneration, trigeneration, and polygeneration technologies;
• Distributed generation, smart grids, and local self-sufficiency in energy supply;
• Energy efficiency;
• Hybrid energy systems;
• Smart buildings and energy-saving, passive, and nearly zero-energy buildings;
• Green fuel/energy for mobility;
• Modeling for pollution avoidance;
• Measurements, automation, and monitoring in energy systems;
• Green economy;
• Energy markets;
• Energy policy;
• Renewable energy community;
• Power to x technologies;
• Novel approach for handling the excess of renewable energy as compressed air energy storage or liquid CO₂ energy storage;
