Renewable Energy
The journal, Renewable Energy, seeks to promote and disseminate knowledge on the various topics and technologies of renewable energy systems and components. The journal aims to serve researchers, engineers, economists, manufacturers, NGOs, associations and societies to help them keep abreast of new developments in their specialist fields and to apply alternative energy solutions to current practices.Renewable Energy is an international, multi-disciplinary journal in renewable energy engineering and research. The journal aims to be a leading peer-reviewed platform and an authoritative source of original research and reviews related to renewable energy.Renewable Energy covers research in the following areas:Biomass ConversionPhotovolta... Technology ConversionSolar Thermal ApplicationsWind Energy TechnologyDesalinati... and Low Energy ArchitectureClimatol... and MeteorologyGeotherma... TechnologyWave, Tide and Ocean Thermal EnergiesHydro PowerHydrogen Production Technology and Fuel CellsSocio-economic and Policy IssuesThe journal also welcomes papers on other related topics provided that such topics are within the context of the broader multi-disciplinary scope of Renewable Energy. It should be noted, however, that papers are within scope only if they are concerned with power generation and that the power is generated in a renewable or sustainable way. For instance, a paper concerning development and characterisation of a material for use in a renewable energy system, without any measure of the energy that this new material will convert, would be out of scope.Renewable Energy accepts original research papers and review papers (the latter by invitation of the Editor-in-Chief only). Interested authors of review papers need to send the outline of the review together with a short CV of the main author/s to the Editor-in-Chief before submission of the paper.This journal welcomes contributions that support and advance the UN's sustainable development goals, in particular SDG 7 (Affordable and clean energy) and SDG 13 (Climate Action)

Renewable Energy Focus
Renewable Energy is no longer a niche sector of novel technologies, and we have now implemented renewable energy to a scale where it is expected to triple capacity globally power by 2030 and increase more than 10x by 2050. This integration has had a significant impact on conventional energy infrastructure, creating a new grand challenge that the energy sector needs to address:How should energy infrastructure and markets evolve as the grid becomes more decarbonised and decentralised, and as greater digitisation comes to the fore;And with this challenge in mind, what pathways (and their associated requirements) will enable renewable energy technologies to co-exist with other assets in a rapidly-decarbonisin... energy system?Renewable Energy Focus Journal aims to be a focal point for exploring where these complex forces of decarbonisation, decentralisation and digitisation intersect with the scale up of renewable energy, its related technologies, and market developments.We serve multiple stakeholders, including:Academics and researchers;Engineer... and the Finance community;Those with a keen interest in the scale up of renewable energy, such as NGOs, Associations, Governments and Societies.Renewable Energy Focus seeks to deliver high-value insights across the energy value chain through integrative, comprehensive, and leading-edge research - covering high impact innovations in renewable energy systems integration; modelling and analysis; policy; and business innovations. At the technology level we publish fundamental and applied research (and insights) on commercially-feasibl... renewable energy technology development across all vertical technology sectors.We accept Original Research and Review Papers that contribute substantial new science and insights on renewable energies, renewable based power systems, and renewable chemicals, fuels and integrated systems. All Research is subject to rigorous full peer review.We also encourage authors wherever possible to publish their data with us, either through supplementary material; on Elsevier's Mendeley platform; or by publishing a data article in Elsevier's Data in Brief Journal (which can then be linked to your article on Renewable Energy Focus). More details can be found in our Guide for Authors.To help you decide if your paper is in scope, here is a (non-exhaustive) list of some examples of subjects that we would cover: Please remember that regardless of the overarching theme of your Research, papers should focus in some way on aspects of renewable energy or its integration. Some examples include:Decentralisa... and its impact on decarbonising the grid: This could relate to the integration of different technology profiles, storage technologies, and the ability to deploy energy effectively within different frameworks.How should the grid evolve to manage a complex interaction of different energy technology profiles reliably and economically, both in the developed and developing world?The role of Digitisation and advanced IT technology to manage, decarbonise, co-ordinate and optimise the grid (and assets associated with it).How will market forces need to adapt to facilitate an energy transition (for example with regard to Social and consumer attitudes and behaviour; supply and demand; and the economics of integrating different technology profiles).How do the Power markets need to evolve to encourage continued investment in a broad and diverse range of technology profiles and energy systems - many of which have conflicting grid requirements, performance and outputs.What do we need to do to make the electrification of transport possible?This journal welcomes contributions that support and advance the UN's sustainable development goals, in particular SDG 7 (Affordable and clean energy) and SDG 13 (Climate Action)
