Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The energy sector represents over 10% of Canada’s GDP. Canada is the sixth largest energy producer, the fourth largest net exporter, and the eighth largest consumer. Over USD 1 billion was spent on energy research, development, and deployment by governments in 2018–19.
Practically all primary energy sources contribute to Canada’s portfolio, with a significant increase of renewable energies in recent years. In addition to GHG reduction requirements, technologies developed in Canada must face specific challenges, a few of them being:
- Huge territory with multiple distributed production and consumption sites
- Reduce environmental impacts of oil and gas production
- Technology adaptation to cold climatic conditions
- Integration and management of vast quantities of variable and intermittent renewable energy sources
- Transport electrification
- Improve energy efficiency, particularly heating and cooling
In this Special Issue, we are inviting R&D contributions that address energy issues, particularly those adapted for the Canadian context.

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.
