Juan Miguel Morales Gonzalez , Salvador Pineda Morente

• The energy sector is the backbone of economic progress in industrialized countries and the well-being of their peoples. Proof of this is the current energy crisis, where the scarcity of energy resources has triggered a large inflation in the prices of consumables, goods and services. In this context, Operations Research offers powerful tools to do more with less, mitigate the most adverse effects of climate change, and take advantage of digitalization.

  This special issue of TOP (co-guest-edited by Juan M. Morales and Salvador Pineda) has brought together contributions from an internationally recognized panel of experts in the use of Operations Research to address the challenges facing the energy sector today.
