Editorial: Recent development in energy conversion systems

Résumé

Recent development in energy conversion systemsIn this industrial and technological age, energy plays a principal role in sustainable development.This is connected to Research Topic regarding availability, production processes, utilization and environmental impact.Due to the increasing population growth rate, the global energy demand will get to an unsustain level shortly if serious measures are not initiated to address the situation, especially from research and development perspectives."None of the millennium development goals (MDGs) can be completed without considerable improvements in the quality and quantity of energy services in developing countries," according to the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).Based on this fact, UNDP is making efforts, especially in developing countries, to ensure people have access to sustainable sources of clean, reliable, and affordable energy since this vital resource impacts every aspect of human development.The available energy conversion systems have limited efficiencies, high operating costs, and environmental effects.Sustainable energy systems are expected to minimize the environmental impact during their design and operation, to provide economically affordable energy to maximize their benefits to a large population and help mitigate emissions to the environment.Based on the above, the Frontiers in Energy Research Journal agreed to host a Research Topic about Recent Developments in Energy Conversion Systems.This Research Topic collects articles that examine research and development towards achieving sustainable energy conversion systems.Nearly 29 papers have been submitted to this Research Topic, and 10 have been finally accepted, including 4 original research papers and 6 review papers.This Research Topic received very positive and supportive responses from various stakeholders globally.Since it began in 2022, there were 22,020 total views; 21,001 article views; 4,428 article downloads, 1,019 Research Topic views as of 30 January 2024.
