International Journal of Low-Carbon Technologies

International Journal of Low-Carbon Technologies is concerned with the application of technology to the challenges created by climate change. All areas of the field are considered with sections focusing on: Renewable energy technologies Innovative and emerging new technologies (all areas) Solar collector technologies Solar thermal power and solar desalination PV cells and system technologies (BIPV and new technologies) Wind power technology Biomass and biogas technologies Geothermal energy Wave and tidal power Ambient energy utilization CO2 reduction and low carbon technologies Heat pumps and CHP systems Hydrogen generation and storage systems Fuel cells Waste and heat management Low carbon technologies and systems Process optimization with carbon reduction in industry Energy and life cycle analysis Sustainable energy technologies in the built environment Solar heating and cooling for the building environment Low and zero energy houses and buildings Moisture control in buildings Advanced energy storage technologies Integration of renewable energy systems in buildings HVAC system and natural ventilation Distributed energy systems and buildings Renewable energy management and environmental impact Renewable energy policies and economics Carbon trading, CDM Sustainability impact assessments and tools Sustainable development criteria for use in environmental assessment Simulation, optimization and analysis tools and professional software Integrated approaches It is our aim that International Journal of Low-Carbon Technologies will provide a forum for the cross-fertilization of ideas across all areas of the field. Papers should be written in such a way that the technologies and results they report on are accessible to researchers working in other areas of the field. Authors should also describe the actual or potential applications of their work. The journal publishes research articles, technical notes, review papers, book reviews and focus issues.
