The integration of energy, water and environment systems represents important opportunities for addressing the urgent imperative of climate neutrality. The 29 original papers in the virtual special issue of the 14th Conference on Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems exemplify multiple advances in integrated approaches. This editorial provides a review of recent scientific contributions in energy system integration, urban synergies in the energy transition, integration of energy and water systems as well as valorization of waste heat. Advances that relate to sustainable combustion, biomass, and managing emissions provide further perspectives. All seven themes contain new research directions in such areas as solar energy technologies, thermal energy storage, power-to-X technologies, district heating and cooling networks, wastewater treatment plants, water desalination, and salinity gradient technologies. Advanced optimization approaches, big data analytics for cogeneration, thermal management applications, pollution minimization, lignocellulosic biomass, catalysts for alternative fuels as well as carbon capture, storage and utilization are described among other scientific contributions. Across the world, the focus on integration is gaining prominence, especially with the European Union Strategy on Energy System Integration that recognizes the role of a coordinated approach for planning and operating the energy system as a whole. The research advances that are contained in this editorial will support the realization of a coherent approach on the path towards sustaining the life-support systems of the planet and thereby support sustainable development.

Advancements in sustainable development of energy, water and environment systems
Kılkış, Şiir; Krajacic, Goran; Duic, Neven; Rosen, Marc A.; Al-Nimr, Moh'd Ahmad (2018-11-01)
The integration of sectors for more sustainable systems and processes provide a multi-disciplinary research domain to which researchers are contributing with intense motivation in the context of urgency for addressing global climate change. The 26 papers in the current special issue of the 12th Conference on Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems represent a pursuit of excellence for leading related advancements. This editorial contains a review of these advances with a focus on th...
Accelerating mitigation of climate change with sustainable development of energy, water and environment systems
Kılkış, Şiir; Krajacic, Goran; Duic, Neven; Rosen, Marc A.; Al-Nimr, Moh'd Ahmad (2021-10-01)
Integrated approaches across energy, water and environment systems can accelerate the process of mitigating climate change through urgent action. New scientific advances that extend multiple opportunities in this direction have emanated from the 2nd Latin American, 1st Asia Pacific, 4th South East European and 15th Conferences on Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems as represented in this editorial. The review of recent scientific advances connects the 27 research articles in thi...
Research frontiers in sustainable development of energy, water and environment systems in a time of climate crisis
Kılkış, Şiir; Krajacic, Goran; Duic, Neven; Montorsi, Luca; Wang, Qiuwang; Rosen, Marc A.; Al-Nimr, Moh'd Ahmad (2019-11-01)
Sustainable energy conversion and management processes increasingly require an integrated approach, especially in the context of addressing the climate crisis. This editorial puts forth related research frontiers based on 28 research articles of the special issue that is dedicated to the 13th Conference on Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems and regional series based on the 1st Latin American and 3rd South East European Conferences. Seven research frontiers are reviewed, the fir...
Sustainable development of energy, water and environment systems index for Southeast European cities
Kılkış, Şiir (2016-09-01)
Benchmarking the performance of cities across aspects that relate to the sustainable development of energy, water and environment systems requires an integrated approach. This paper benchmarks a sample of 12 Southeast European cities based on a composite indicator that consists of 7 dimensions and 35 main indicators. The composite indicator is namely the Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems (SDEWES) City Sustainability Index. The first three dimensions are energy consumption and ...
THE ROLE OF COMMUNITY ENERGY PLANNING IN DECENTRALIZATION POLICIES OF TURKEY
Erkan, Esengül; Senol Balaban, Meltem; Department of Urban Policy Planning and Local Governments (2022-1-27)
The thesis examines the applications of renewable energy towards community energy as an urban policy in the local governments of Turkey. A comprehensive study was conducted on the energy production and consumption from renewable energy in the world and in Turkey, and the increase in global renewable energy activities in recent years was discussed together with issues such as climate crisis and localization. In the discussions on political, administrative, and financial decentralization and privatization pol...
