Aims & Scope
Aim:
The aim of the Journal of Green Energy and Transition to Sustainability is to advance knowledge and promote innovation in the transition towards a more sustainable energy future, with a focus on green energy technologies, practices, and policies.
Scope:
- Exploration of renewable energy sources, including solar, wind, hydro, biomass, geothermal, tidal, and wave energy, and their applications in power generation, heating, cooling, and transportation.
- Analysis of energy efficiency technologies, building design strategies, and energy management practices aimed at reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
- Examination of energy storage solutions, including batteries, pumped hydro storage, thermal energy storage, and hydrogen storage, and their role in integrating renewable energy into the grid.
- Study of smart grid technologies, demand response programs, and grid modernization efforts aimed at enhancing grid resilience, reliability, and flexibility.
- Investigation of policies, regulations, and financial incentives promoting the adoption of renewable energy and energy efficiency measures at local, national, and international levels.
- Analysis of sustainable transportation systems, including electric vehicles, biofuels, hydrogen fuel cells, and public transit, and their contributions to reducing carbon emissions and air pollution.
- Exploration of circular economy principles, waste-to-energy technologies, and resource recovery strategies aimed at reducing environmental impacts and promoting resource efficiency.
- Assessment of environmental, social, and economic impacts of green energy transition pathways, including job creation, public health benefits, and energy access in underserved communities.
- Examination of community-based renewable energy projects, energy cooperatives, and decentralized energy systems that promote local ownership and empowerment.
- Discussion of ethical considerations, equity issues, and social justice dimensions of green energy transition efforts, including the equitable distribution of costs, benefits, and risks.
- Evaluation of techno-economic feasibility, life cycle assessments, and sustainability metrics for assessing the environmental and social performance of green energy technologies and practices.
- Collaboration between researchers, policymakers, industry stakeholders, and civil society organizations to identify barriers, leverage synergies, and catalyze transformative change towards a more sustainable, resilient, and equitable energy future.
