Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The renewable energy sector is rapidly evolving towards more sustainable, efficient and resilient energy systems driven by innovation, policy, and the compelling need to address climate change. Thus, renewable energy and power systems are experiencing hasty advances due to technological innovations, policy changes, and increasing environmental awareness.
The most notable emerging trends shaping the future of power systems involve novel small and large-scale photovoltaic and wind energy systems, energy storage, green hydrogen, distributed energy systems, microgrids, digitalization of energy systems, smart energy systems, AI-assisted energy systems, carbon capture and utilization, electric vehicles, emerging technologies, and sustainability and circular economy.
These developments are important since they aim to transform the global energy landscape, aiming to (a) reduce greenhouse gas emissions to meet climate goals and preserve our Earth and its natural resources, (b) provide energy security and independence hand in hand with economic benefits and public health for various populations, and (c) drive technological innovation to achieve sustainable development. Embracing these trends is essential for building a sustainable, resilient, and equitable energy future.
This Special Issue seeks to publish high-quality, cutting-edge innovative papers related to novel trends regarding renewable energy and power systems.
