Energy with Purpose
The Elsevier Energy Books Team's commitment is to only commission content that supports and advances the energy transition and the reduction of CO2 emissions, to meet the world’s energy needs whilst protecting our planet for future generations.
Our Mission
At Elsevier, we are using data combined with content and subject expertise to gain unique insights into how research can accelerate efforts to mitigate the effects of climate change. As a company, we are committed to the rapid reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, aiming to achieve net zero emissions before 2050. The transformation of power systems and integration of renewable sources are critical drivers in achieving pathways to net zero.
We aim to accelerate the energy transition through the development of critical new book resources that consolidate and advance research and practice, directly contributing to the emerging sustainable smart energy system of tomorrow. Being an advocate and partner for sustainable advances, we ask ourselves how can we help our authors and readership lead the change toward a cleaner, safer environment for all?
