Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In recent decades, climate change and global warming have become a serious threat. To cope with these environmental issues, it is essential to deploy renewable energy sources. The development of sustainable energy will reduce our dependence on fossil fuel sources, enhance socio-economic development and mitigate the issue of environmental degradation. This Special Issue invites researchers, experts and policymakers to present their research findings, innovative solutions and research regarding the development of future renewable energy policies related to sustainable energy. Assessing the impact of sustainable energy on socio-economic and environmental factors could also provide valuable insights regarding the development of energy, as well as effective policy implications. Therefore, the scope of this Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:

  • Energy storage and sustainability
  • Renewable energy Sources
  • Energy and Economic growth
  • Climate Change

We hope that the original research articles and reviews presented in this Special Issue will stimulate thoughts and discussions on these topics. We look forward to receiving your submissions.

Dr. Anam Azam
Guest Editor
