Introduction
This Special Issue focuses on the global shift from fossil‑fuel‑based energy systems to low‑carbon, sustainable energy under climate urgency. It emphasizes applied, problem‑solving research on the energy transition’s technological, policy, economic, environmental, and societal dimensions, rather than purely formal modelling. The issue aims to problematize the transition and highlight critical dimensions such as innovation, market dynamics, green finance, resilience, and human capital, with relevance across regions and energy systems.
