About this Research Topic
The "Rising Stars in Energy Efficiency" Research Topic aims to showcase the exceptional contributions and groundbreaking research of emerging scientists, engineers, policymakers and entrepreneurs in industry, in the field of energy efficiency.
This collection of articles highlights the work of a select group of talented individuals who have demonstrated remarkable achievements in energy efficiency research and promise for a more sustainable and climate friendly future. Their innovative technologies and methodologies, insightful applications, and multidisciplinary approaches involving science, engineering and policy, are pushing the boundaries of our understanding and approach to energy consumption, efficient energy usage, and energy efficient buildings, materials, industries, and processes worldwide.
Their research is supporting the change to a more sustainable future and mitigating climate change, with energy efficiency having direct influence and impact in Sustainable Development Goal 7 - Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all. As well as being highlighted as fundamental for change, by bodies such as the International Energy Agency, International Planet on Climate Change and World Economic Forum.
Please note, contributions to the collection are by invitation only. All Rising Star researchers will be suggested by established Editors, Specialty Chief Editors and our Field Chief Editor, within our board in recognition of their influence on the future directions in their respective research areas.
All specialty sections of the journal are included, welcoming contributions in the areas of:
· Energy Efficiency Applications
