Summary
In the last few decades, the integration and improvement in the energy efficiency of several sectors regarding electricity, heating, cooling, transport, water, buildings, waste, wastewater, industry, forestry and agriculture systems have become more and more pivotal. Considering the importance of a social system based on the sustainability concept and the efforts made to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the SDEWES Conferences have become a significant platform for researchers in those areas to meet, discuss, share and disseminate new ideas.
This Special Issue aims to provide an important contribution by presenting the state of the art in sustainable energy supply solutions, ranging from the technical analyses of energy components on both the supply and demand sides to energy scenarios and pathways. This Special Issue particularly welcomes SDEWES papers that address energy systems without traditional sector boundaries between electricity, heating, cooling, transportation and industrial demands and that consider the integration and synergies between these sectors.
The 19th Conference on Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems—the SDEWES Conference—was held on 8-12 September in Rome (Italy). The 4th LA Conference on Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems (SDEWES) was held on 14–17 January 2024 in Vina del Mar, Chile. The 2nd AP Conference on Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems (SDEWES) was held on 02-05 April 2024 in the Gold Coast, Australia. These SDEWES Conferences are dedicated to the improvement and dissemination of knowledge on methods, policies and technologies for increasing the sustainability of, and taking into account its economic, environmental and social pillars.
