Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Reducing energy consumption in buildings and/or substitution with low/zero-carbon alternatives are among the critical components in meeting carbon reduction commitments. Thermal energy storage (TES) is one of the key low-cost technologies that can enable the increased use of intermittent renewable heat/electricity production to meet non-concurrent heat demands. TES systems can be classified into three categories: sensible heat storage (SHS), latent heat energy storage (LHS), and thermochemical energy storage (TCES). The validated numerical modelling and simulation of TES systems is an attractive approach for the evaluation of the probable store performance of different applications, identifying potential optimum store designs and key operational parameters.
This Special Issue focuses on recent approaches to the modelling and simulation of TES systems for different built environmental applications including water and space heating, waste heat utilisation, cooling and air conditioning.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
