Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recently, the concept of the zero-energy building (ZEB) has received increasing interest around the world, and energy production using renewable energy systems has become an essential factor for its realization. Moreover, building-integrated systems with renewable energy resources have also been in the spotlight as leading techniques in the field of building energy. Governments in leading countries have begun to move toward targets for zero-energy buildings, and have supported initiatives and research projects for the use of renewable energy systems. Under the political support for the realization of ZEB, the need for highly efficient design, cost-efficient installation, and optimum control methods for renewable energy systems is also significantly growing.
This Special Issue focuses on all the renewable energy systems which can be used in buildings to contribute to enhanced scientific and multidisciplinary studies, as well as future applied studies. The topic covers specific areas of renewable energy systems in buildings relevant to physical science and applied engineering. We invite papers on fundamental approaches and novel technical developments, analytical papers, experimental papers, assessments, and reviews. This Special Issue aims to share research knowledge and skills, promote new applied research, and encourage other challenges in renewable energy systems in buildings.

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.
