Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Global warming has become one of the greatest environmental problems faced by the world today, leading to ecological problems such as melting glaciers, land desertification, and vegetation degradation. In recent years, the international community has held a series of important meetings and formulated many agreements to control carbon dioxide emissions, and carbon neutrality has become an important strategic goal for the world's major energy-consuming countries in their attempts to control CO2 emissions. The question of how to effectively achieve this strategic goal has become the focus of government officials and academics around the world. This Special Issue invites papers concerning carbon emission reduction technologies and paths to achieving carbon emission reductions, along with the fundamental problems inherent to them.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- CO2 emission control technologies;
- Shale gas extraction;
- Renewable energy production and consumption;
- Natural gas transmission;
- Biomass energy production and consumption;
- Energy storage technologies;
- Novel energy vehicles;
- Government subsidies and clean energy consumption.
