Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Guest Editor is inviting submissions to a Special Issue of Energies on the subject area of “Thermal Energy Storage and Carbon Capture”. In today’s world, environmental problems and the energy crisis are two major global issues that need to be urgently addressed. The continuous rise in the level of energy consumption and the emission of greenhouse gases are the main forces driving the need for more effective use of renewable energy sources. The thermal energy storage system is one of the alternative solutions to address this matter. This Special Issue will deal with novel technologies and techniques for developing thermal energy storage systems in different applications. Topics of interest for publication include but are not limited to the following:
- Science, technology, and the application of thermal energy storage;
- A low-carbon power generation system integrated with renewable energy and thermal energy storage;
- The integration of a thermal energy storage system in different applications (e.g., building, power plant, and hybrid storage system);
- The synthesis, fabrication, and characterization of storage media;
- Carbon capture and storage;
- Economic assessment and analysis of thermal energy storage in various applications.
