Submissions for the Special Issue are now open!
As it has been the tradition with previous editions of the ECEMP conference, we continue to invite presentations (and participants or contributions on the topics of each year’s event) to contribute to Special Issues in international scientific journals.
This year we’re organizing a Focus Collection in Environmental Research: Energy (EREN), titled European Energy Transition and Society: Moving Towards Implementation, and designed to bring together a broad community of researchers and practitioners working on Europe’s energy and climate transition. All the information for the Focus Issue and submission guidelines can be accessed here: Focus on European Energy Transition and Society: moving towards Implementation – IOPscience.
