Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Guest Editors are inviting submissions to a Special Issue of Energies entitled “Challenges, Trends and Forecasting of Sustainable and Renewable Energy Systems”. There are two main aspects to the environmental impact of pollutants produced by fossil fuels. One is global climate change. The carbon in fuel is converted into carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, causing the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere rise, which leads to intensification of the greenhouse effect, changes in the global climate, and ecological balance imbalance. Second is thermal pollution. The “waste heat” left over from the generation of coal-fired power stations is discharged into rivers, lakes, and the atmosphere or ocean, causing thermal pollution in most cases. To effectively resolve ecological and environmental problems, reduce carbon dioxide emissions, and gradually replace coal and other fossil resources, the development of renewable energy is the fundamental way and the only choice.
The purpose of this Special Issue is to provide a platform for the exchange and publication of renewable energy and sustainable development related research and exchange toward exploring how to realize the sustainable development of renewable energy systems in themselves, and how to use renewable energy to help realize the sustainable development of human society and the economy.

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).
