Pathways to a Sustainable Energy Future: Innovations and Strategies for a Low-Carbon World

The energy transition is one of the most pressing and urgent challenges facing humanity today. Climate change, driven largely by our reliance on fossil fuels, poses an existential threat to our planet and our way of life. The transition to sustainable, low-carbon energy sources is not only necessary but also presents an unprecedented opportunity to create a more prosperous, equitable, and resilient future. As the world grapples with the challenges posed by climate change and the need for sustainable development, the energy transition has emerged as a critical agenda. The transition involves a fundamental shift from fossil fuels to clean, sustainable and low-carbon energy sources. It encompasses a range of interrelated issues, such as energy access, energy security, energy efficiency, and decarbonization, which require innovative and sustainable solutions. This book series covers a wide range of topics critical to achieving this transition, including renewable energy systems modeling, energy demand modeling, power system, power electronics, and its industrial application, AI application in energy and e-mobility, as well as the development of sustainable low-carbon energy system frameworks. Moreover, the series also covers the ICT, smart grids, and carbon-neutral technologies, which are all essential components of a sustainable energy system.
