Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

Greetings from the Topic Editors. We are inviting submissions to the Topic on the key subject area of the Sustainable Energy.

The energy sector has characterized man at every step of his evolution: from the primordial discovery of fire to the Industrial Revolution up to ICT and IoT, which are already projected to feature an increasingly present use of AI.

Energy has always represented the opportunity to satisfy one’s own needs but first only by exploiting and consuming the resources that the planet had made available to man in tens of thousands of years of transformation processes of organic matter and then by seizing the possibility to use resources without consuming them so that future generations can also satisfy their needs. There is “nothing else” other than sustainability; today, more than ever, the “conditio sine qua non” perspective of development is adopted.

The Topic, also titled “Sustainable Energy”, is focused on the combination of new and efficient technological solutions combining environmental, economic, political, and social aspects turning around humans into this new ecosystem of sustainability.

Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to:

• Renewable Sources;
• Conversion Technologies;
• Biofuels;
• Hydrogen and Fuel Cells;
• Energy Storage, Transport, and Distribution;
• Environment;
• Ecology, Biodiversity, and Natural Balances;
• Environmental Impacts Analysis;
• Carbon Footprint;
• Energy Security;
• Integrated Resource Usage Planning;
• Energy Efficiency;
• Energy Systems for Mobility and Infrastructure;
• Energy Systems Analysis, Modeling, and Control;
• Smartification and Intelligent Systems.

This Topic, therefore, seeks to contribute to the energy sustainability agenda through enhanced new and efficient technological solutions combining environmental, economic, political, and social aspects to turning around humans with the knowledge of this new ecosystem of sustainability.

We therefore invite research papers on innovative technical developments, reviews, case studies, analyses, and assessments that are relevant to improve this new ecosystem of sustainability.
