Summary

Climate change is a global issue of common concern to the international community. Energy systems management is an efficient tool to cope with climate change by curbing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (Ebinger and Vergara, 2011). Energy efficiency improvement, energy transition and energy structure adjustment are the promising options for energy systems management practice. However, energy systems are strongly impacted by climate change. For example, the operation of energy infrastructure is influenced by the climate factors and extreme climate events and renewable energy systems are depended on the stability of climate factors of rainfall, wind speed, etc. (Wang et al, 2014). Here, the dual relationships between energy systems management and climate change should be investigated.

 

The first aspect is energy systems management for coping with climate change. The sustainability of energy systems is closely related to the choices for addressing climate change (Chen et al., 2020). A low-carbon energy system should be achieved by the sustainable management of energy intensive and GHG intensive sectors. Reducing GHG emissions from fossil fuel combustion will also make a great contribution for climate change mitigation.

 

The second aspect is alleviating the impacts of climate change on energy systems. Climate change has fundamental effects on energy, generation, conversion, conservation, utilization, storage, transmission, etc. Almost all of energy sectors are vulnerable to climate change and extreme climate events. For example, the oil and gas sector are highly vulnerable to climate change and extreme weather events (Cruz and Krausmann, 2013). Tsunami and other extreme events have severe impacts on energy infrastructure, pipeline and energy storage projects.

 

This special issue provides an academic and technical platform for worldwide researchers and engineers to exchange innovative and systematic interdisciplinary research ideas, framework and solutions for sustainable development of energy systems and climate systems. Both original research and review articles on energy systems management and climate change are highly welcome.

    Abstract Vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) is considered one of the most potential large-scale energy storage technologies in the future, and its electrolyte flow rate is an important factor affecting the performance of VRFB. To study the effect of electrolyte flow rate on the performance of VRFB, the hydrodynamic model is established and a VRFB system is developed. The results show that under constant current density, with the increase of electrolyte flow rate, not only the coulombic efficiency, energy efficiency, and voltage efficiency will increase, but also the capacity and energy discharged by VRFB will also More >
