Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The diminishing supply of conventional energy reserves and growing environmental concerns have made renewable energy an attractive source for the future. The Aviation and Aerospace industry is a large contributor to this pollution, and its energy needs are growing. In addition to the energy requirements for aircraft, airports are growing larger. Some airports operate around the clock and consume more energy than some small cities.
This Special Issue on Alternate and Renewable Energy options in Aviation and Aerospace covers cutting-edge research in renewable energy and alternative fuels that can be used in the Aviation and Aerospace industry. It has a particular focus on minimizing environmental pollution by reducing greenhouse gases (GHG). It covers the current thinking in the use of solar, wind, tidal, wave, hydropower , and geothermal energy and other emerging technologies. It also includes highly efficient energy storage systems to store energy, and systems that capture and re-use waste products, and other related fields.
We wish to invite researchers in the area of Alternate and Renewable Energy to submit their contribution to our Special Issue of Alternate and Renewable Energy options in Aviation and Aerospace. We are interested in articles related to alternate and renewable energy resources (solar, wind, biomass, hydraulic, algae, water, hydrogen), bioenergy from agriculture, biomass production, and energy recovery in agriculture, which can be to develop aircraft fuel, or which can power and make airports more efficient.
