We’re excited to announce our new Special Issue, guest edited by Oscar Pupo Roncallo, Jose Hidalgo Crespo, and me, focusing on Circular Economy Management of Renewable Energy Systems, now open for submissions in Discover Sustainability (SpringerNature) - SCOPUS Q1. While renewable energy is vital for achieving sustainability goals, the full lifecycle of technologies like solar panels and wind turbines presents environmental and resource challenges. This collection explores practical, technical, and policy solutions to enhance circularity and reduce the environmental footprint of renewable energy infrastructures. We welcome interdisciplinary contributions in areas such as: ▪️ Lifecycle assessment & environmental footprinting ▪️ Design for durability, modularity & recyclability ▪️ Approaches to mitigate premature obsolescence in renewable energy components ▪️ Implementing service-based business models in renewable energy deployment ▪️ Recycling, repurposing, and rare earth recovery ▪️ Smart technologies (AI, IoT, blockchain) for circular traceability Policy, regulation & financing mechanisms ▪️ Comparative case studies and local initiatives Submit your research or review: https://lnkd.in/eYqgkdeq 📅 Deadline: 31 March 2026 For questions or more information, feel free to contact us directly via LinkedIn or email ([email protected])
