Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, the demands for energy efficiency in the transportation sector have constantly increased. We are facing many challenges in the transition to fully sustainable transportation, both in terms of finding suitable technologies and energy resources. Research on biofuels, hydrogen, electrofuels (or synthetic fuels), and electricity, as the four main alternatives to the current fossil fuel systems, and their applications to transportation, will be included in this Topic.

Transport planning also will be included, to improve mobility for vehicles, reduce emissions and save energy.
Transportation in Sustainable Energy Systems Topic invites papers on theoretical and applied issues including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Sustainable transportation;
  • Low- and zero-emission propulsion;
  • Energy-efficient transport;
  • Roads, railways, airways, waterways, canals, and terminals;
  • Environmental and climate considerations;
  • Air pollution;
  • Transport planning;
  • Modeling;
  • Sustainable cities;
  • Smart cities;
  • Artificial Intelligence;
  • Vehicles;
  • Aircraft;
  • Ships;
  • Biofuels;
  • Hydrogen;
  • Electrofuels (or synthetic fuels);
  • Combustion engines;
  • Hybridization;
  • Electric vehicles;
  • Fuel cells;
  • Fuel technologies.
