Summary
The growing urgency to combat climate change and reduce fossil fuel dependence has placed sustainable transport and energy efficiency at the forefront of global research and policy agendas. With transportation being one of the largest energy-consuming sectors worldwide, the integration of clean technologies, smart mobility systems, and low-emission strategies is more critical than ever. This Special Issue aims to bring together cutting-edge research and practical innovations that address these challenges through interdisciplinary approaches.
We invite contributions that explore the development, deployment, and evaluation of energy-efficient transport systems, renewable-powered mobility, electric vehicles, green infrastructure, and urban transport planning. Emphasis will also be placed on the socio-economic and environmental impacts of these advancements, offering insights into policymaking, behavioral change, and system-level optimization.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
· Sustainable urban and freight transport
· Electric and autonomous vehicle technologies
· Transport energy modeling and lifecycle analysis
· Integration of renewables in transport systems
· Smart mobility and digital innovations
· Policy frameworks for energy-efficient mobility
· Public transit modernization and electrification
· Advancements in alternative fuel technologies for vehicles
· AI-driven optimization for energy-efficient transport systems and grid interaction
· Techno-economic and environmental analysis of hybrid energy systems in transport applications
