Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We invite would like to invite you to submit your original research or overview papers to this Special Issue on the “Techno-Economic and Environmental Analyses of Low-Carbon Technologies”, in Energies.
Enabling low-carbon technologies is critical to achieving the ambitions of the Paris Agreement and the early emission-reduction targets adopted by many countries for 2030. Over the past decades, many strong research, development, and demonstration efforts have been taking place, and accelerating such technologies toward commercialization, as well as the development of novel concepts. Despite these significant progresses, further technological developments, scale-up, and an acceleration of large-scale implementations are required to meet the planned ambitions.
Beyond technological advancements, a better understanding of the costs and environmental performances of low-carbon technologies is also required to better inform decision-makers on the potential of these technologies and guide deployment as well as research activities to improve the performances of promising options.
This Special Issue aims to present high-quality contributions on techno-economic and environmental analyses of technologies that enable low-carbon energy or products. The low-carbon technologies considered include, but are not limited to:
- Carbon capture and storage (CCS) for both the power and industrial sectors
- Low-carbon hydrogen production
- Bioenergy with or without CCS
- Negative emissions technologies
