Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Energy systems are currently undergoing fundamental transformation processes all around the globe. These processes aim at establishing sustainable and climate-neutral solutions based on a variety of novel technologies. Renewable energies fluctuations, their distributed technical character, and vanishing marginal costs induce related fundamental change within the technical, economic, and societal areas of energy systems. This Special Issue is dedicated to recent advances in this very broad field of research, which includes energy systems analysis, energy infrastructures transformation, energy systems operation, and energy market design, as well as societal, political, and environmental dimensions. The main criteria for paper acceptance are relevance to the field; academic excellence; and originality and novelty of applications, methods, or fundamental findings.
