Any other proposals within the scope of the journal are also welcome; for further information please see: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/energies/about.
The following information is required to be submitted: Special Issue title, introduction, and planned paper list.
The duties and benefits of serving as a Guest Editor are as follows:
- Re-defining the title and scope of this Special Issue;
- Making decisions on whether a manuscript can be accepted based on the reports we collect;
- Promoting the Special Issue and increasing its visibility at related academic conferences.
Guest Editorship: 2–3 editors in a team. This should balance the workload for the editors and enable an internal discussion in case any controversial issues arise. Moreover, as the Guest Editors have different research networks, the cooperation would broaden the coverage of potential authors, thereby increasing the influence of the Special Issue. Once your proposal has been approved, you can start organizing a team. The Publisher and Editor-in-Chief will review these co-editors to ensure that they meet the journal’s editorial requirements. We encourage teams to include editors from multiple institutions and locations. This diversity reduces potential conflicts of interest and helps the Special Issue reach a wider audience.
If you are interested in editing a Special Issue, please contact us before 31 December 2021. To propose or request further information, please contact the Energies Editorial Office ([email protected]). We look forward to hearing from you soon.
