Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are very pleased to introduce this Special Issue of Applied Sciences on “Frontier Trends of Renewable Energy Production and Storage Technologies”.
Renewable energy technologies have been rapidly demonstrating their potential to re-shape the energy sector. In spite of the maturity of the energy production step, grid connection, energy distribution, and storage still contain significant room for improvements.
Energy storage is a key topic for further deployment of renewable energy production, and therefore, a large research effort is being put into finding innovative solutions. In addition to battery and other types of electrical storage, electrofuels and bioelectricity may offer suitable alternatives in some specific scenarios.
In spite of the challenges that these solutions currently present, the further development of cutting-edge technologies is one of the pillars for putting the World on the path of a low carbon future.
This Special Issue is looking for contributions on each of these topics and MDPI and the editors of Applied Sciences journal are delighted to have the privilege of publishing this Special Issue.
We would like to thank all the authors who contributed to the success of the Special Issue “Cutting-Edge Technologies for Renewable Energy Production and Storage” before, and we look forward to new interesting papers.
Dr. Matteo Prussi
Guest Editor
