Dear Colleagues,
I hope this final call for book chapters finds you well. The due date for chapter submission is one week away. The energy sector is driving rapid changes towards a renewable energy future, but the overall transition is not advancing with the speed needed. Educating college students on renewable energy and sustainable development is a key to greater achievements in this revolution. As Editor of Cases on Green Energy and Sustainable Development to be published by IGI Global, I cordially invite you, and, through you, your senior research colleagues to contribute a chapter to this exciting publication on one of the most important topics of our times. If you are interested in contribute to this book, please submit by June 30th, 2018 a chapter proposal of 1,000 to 2,000 words clearly explaining the mission and concerns of your proposed chapter. After your submission, you will be notified by July 15th, 2018 about the status of your proposal and sent chapter guidelines. Full chapter is expected to be submitted by October 30th, 2018. All submitted chapters will be reviewed on a double-blind review basis. Contributors may also be requested to serve as reviewers for this project.
