SOLAR ENERGY

《太阳能》是国际太阳能协会的官方刊物，专门研究太阳能应用的科学和技术。该协会成立于1954年，现为非营利教育和科学机构。ISES?参与了100个国家，是太阳能利用研究和开发信息中心。该协会通过其出版物和赞助技术会议，为积极审议太阳能提供了一个世界论坛。太阳能欢迎提供以前未在期刊上发表的有关太阳能研究、开发、应用、测量或政策方面的信息的手稿。在这方面，术语“太阳能”包括风能和生物量等间接用途。由于太阳能的国际性，仅涉及特定国家的太阳辐射或风能数据库的文章通常不被认为适用于太阳能。提交的手稿可以是原始研究报告的形式，也可以是对某一特定领域重要前期工作的审查。所有的手稿都要经过审查，以确保准确性、清晰性和长期价值。不适用于太阳能的一般感兴趣的手稿应提交给再聚焦，再聚焦出版了关于可再生能源各方面的杂志式专题文章。请给编辑David Hopwood发电子邮件了解更多详细信息（d.hopwood@elsevier.co.uk），并访问http://www.re-focus.net。

Solar Energy, the official journal of the International Solar Energy Society?, is devoted exclusively to the science and technology of solar energy applications.The Society was founded in 1954 and is now incorporated as a non-profit educational and scientific institution. With participation encompassing 100 countries, ISES? serves as a centre for information on research and development in solar energy utilisation. Through its publications and its sponsorship of technical conferences, the Society provides a world forum for the active consideration of solar energy.Solar Energy welcomes manuscripts presenting information not previously published in journals on any aspect of solar energy research, development, application, measurement or policy. The term "solar energy" in this context includes the indirect uses such as wind energy and biomass. Because of the international character of Solar Energy, articles that deal solely with the solar radiation or wind data base of a specific country are not normally considered suitable for Solar Energy. Submitted manuscripts may take the form of reports of original studies or reviews of significant prior work in a given area. All manuscripts are subject to reviews to assure accuracy, clarity, and long-term value.Manuscripts of general interest not being suitable for Solar Energy should be submitted to Refocus, which publishes magazine-style feature articles concerning all aspects of renewable energy.
