Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The current energy crisis and climate change further emphasize the importance of renewable energy sources in the energy mix and the need to study topics related to energy transition, sustainability, and structural changes in energy systems and markets. Along with the transition of the economy toward low-carbon technologies and increased energy efficiency, renewable energy sources have become globally competitive due to the increased costs of fossil fuels and global efforts of policymakers to mitigate climate change and promote sustainable economic development.
Therefore, submissions are expected to cover a wide range of topics, including the following: assessing the role of renewables and other low-carbon technologies in the energy transition, the current energy crisis, and policy implications for energy markets and the sustainable energy transition as well as the main challenges and suggestions for possible ways to overcome disequilibrium in energy markets and rising prices, especially in electricity markets. Papers on the application of mathematical programming and econometric tools in real-world case studies are also welcome. All contributions will undergo a rigorous review process according to the quality standards of Energies. Contributions must consist of original research, and numerical illustrations should be related to realistic case studies, for which data should be provided (in the paper or as supplementary material) to guarantee the replicability of results. Papers should contribute to the existing literature with novel research methods and results.
