Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is time to take responsibility and action as individuals and as a society for the severe impacts caused by our rising demand for electricity, heat, cooling, and transportation fuels. The scientific community must come together and investigate the most efficient technologies, applications, and pathways that can be used to supress our energetic needs. Such research can promote the development of cost-effective applications that will bring about energy security, reduce fossil fuel depletion, and reduce the environmental impacts caused by fossil fuels.
This Special Issue intends to address the gaps and challenges that affect the bioenergy production chain, all the way from the type and source of biomass resources to the production process, products, and final end uses. All types of original submissions are welcome. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Different types and sources of feedstock;
- Utilization and implementation of new technologies and techniques;
- Use of different strategies for bioresource recovery;
- Production of value-added products, bioenergy, and biofuels;
- Applications of different bioenergy and biomass products for end use;
- Thermal applications;
- Biochemical routes;
- Chemical pathways;
- Optimization techniques and modeling methods;
- Sustainable circular economy and biomass valorization.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
