Renewable Energy Focus

Aims & Scope

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 provide 50% of global power in the next few decades.

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-decarbonising 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; Engineers; Economists and the Finance community; Technology Manufacturers and companies developing renewable energy solutions; Those with a keen interest in the scale up of renewable energy, such as NGOs, Associations, Governments and Societies.

We accept Original Research and Review Papers, Case Studies, as well as Forum Papers - best practice in financial, policy, and regulatory affairs as it pertains to renewable energy development (see our Guide for Authors for a full list of article types we accept).

All Research is subject to rigorous full peer review.
