Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Movement toward a sustainable future is imminent. Energy is a key resource that is needed for many daily operations, yet the energy that we are currently consuming is not sustainable, as it is depleting and pollutes the environment. Many green and sustainable concepts have previously been discovered to combat this issue, from the micro to macro level, covering energy studies from processes to inter-processes, urban industrial symbiosis, and on a larger scale, national energy planning. This Special Issue aims to cover state-of-the-art green energy advancement as well as futuristic and sustainable concepts, such as, but not limited to:

  • Smart microgrid development with advanced artificial intelligence for demand-side energy management and planning;
  • The Net Zero Emission concept for use in reducing and neutralising carbon emission from energy sectors;
  • Water Waste and Energy Nexus or Circular Economy for the integration and minimization of resources;
  • Energy efficiency in industrial practices, including thermal energy optimization;
  • Advancement in renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, bio-energy, geothermal, hydro, and many more;
  • The progress and development of hydrogen economy from production, storage, distribution, and utilization;
  • Techno-economy analysis, Life Cycle Assessment, Environment Impact Assessment on energy-related activities;
  • Urban sustainability and development toward Low Carbon energy consumption and utilization, including Green Buildings and Green Transportation;
  • Energy resource optimization and power system design.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue

  • Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
  • Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
  • Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
  • External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
  • e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.

Under the background of building a new-type power system, as the core of the energy system, the restructuring of the power system will inevitably have a linked impact on the coordinated development of the economy–energy–environment system. A “Dual Triangle” theoretical framework consisting of the “Energy Impossibility Triangle” and “Sustainable Development Triangle” was constructed in this paper. By combining historical statistical analysis with scenario predictive analysis, the historical characteristics of the “Dual Triangle” and future trends under different scenarios were analyzed, and the coupled interaction relationship of the “Dual Triangle” was also studied. Conclusions were as follows: The energy system gradually inclined towards economy and cleanliness from 2010 to 2022, and the operation status of the “Dual Triangle” was stable. A positive coupling relationship within the “Dual Triangle” in vigorously promoting renewable energy scenarios is close, which can be regarded as the preferred path for the reconstruction of the power system. The security and low-carbon phased development scenario is a development model that dynamically mitigates the challenges of the “Energy Impossibility Triangle”. Security has become the core contradiction of the “Energy Impossibility Triangle”. This paper conducts an integrated and innovative application of the “Dual Triangle” theory and provides a case basis for how to achieve the coupled interaction of the “Dual Triangle”. Full article
