Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The search for new sources of usable energy is one of the greatest challenges of the modern world. The development of a smart technology for the use of fusion energy for utilitarian purposes would undoubtedly be a Copernican breakthrough. In anticipation of this event, it is important to tackle research challenges that may be less crucial, but are still extremely important. One such challenge is the development of energy harvesting technology, including the search for new sources and methods. That is why I invite scientists and research teams to publish their achievements in this Special Issue. The topics covered include the development of energy harvesting systems and methods from uncommon sources, in particular issues such as:
- energy harvesting from uncommon sources;
- unconventional methods and systems for energy harvesting;
- distributed energy harvesting systems;
- smart methods in energy harvesting;
- artificial intelligence for energy harvesting and vice versa;
- utilize of garbage, rubbish and waste for energy harvesting;
- energy harvesting from post-mining infrastructure;
- post-industrial energy harvesting sources;
- energy harvesting systems in agriculture and breeding;
- biological energy systems;
- essential metrological problems in energy harvesting;
- energy harvesting for personal devices;
- energy harvesting for control and monitoring;
- energy harvesting for micro- and nano systems;
- storage systems for energy harvesting.
I look forward to familiarizing myself with the results of your latest research and popularizing them in the scientific community, both in this field and related issues.

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.
