Sažetak
EU energy policy is increasingly promoting a resilient, efficient, and sustainable energy system. Several agreements have been signed in the last few months that set ambitious goals in terms of energy efficiency and emission reductions, to reduce the energy consumption in buildings. These actions are expected to fulfill the goals negotiated at the Paris Agreement in 2015. The successful development of this ambitious energy policy needs to be supported by scientific knowledge: a huge effort must be made in order to develop more efficient energy conversion technologies based both on renewables and fossil fuels. Similarly, researchers are also expected to work on the integration of conventional and novel systems and take into account the requirements for the management of novel energy systems in terms of energy storage and device management. Therefore, a multi- disciplinary approach is required in order to achieve these goals. To ensure that scientists belonging to the different disciplines are aware of the scientific progress in the other research areas, specific conferences are periodically organized. One of the most popular conferences in this area is the Sustainable Development of Energy, Water, and Environment Systems (SDEWES) Series Conference. The 12th Sustainable Development of Energy, Water, and Environment Systems Conference was recently held in Dubrovnik, Croatia. The present Special Issue of Energies, specifically dedicated to the 12th SDEWES Conference, is focused on four main fields: energy policy and energy efficiency in smart energy systems, polygeneration and district heating, advanced combustion techniques and fuels, and biomass and building efficiency
