Environmental Sustainability and Energy Economy

This Reprint explores the complex interactions between energy, the environment, and economic development in the context of current global sustainability challenges. Climate change, environmental degradation, and increasing energy demands have intensified the need for policies and strategies capable of promoting economic growth while reducing environmental impacts. Particular attention is given to the role of the energy sector, which remains one of the main contributors to greenhouse gas emissions and is therefore central to the transition towards more sustainable economic systems.The contributions included in this Reprint address a wide range of contemporary topics, including renewable energy sources, energy efficiency, energy security, demand-side management, circular economy practices, and the environmental and economic implications of the energy transition. By bringing together different perspectives and methodological approaches, this Reprint contributes to a broader understanding of the challenges and opportunities associated with sustainable energy systems and environmental policy.
