Abstract: Climate change is one of the greatest threats that mankind is facing today. Global cooperation has been undertaken to address climate change and establish the goal of controlling the surface temperature rise by no more than 2 °C or even 1.5 °C by the end of 2100. This has not only caused the establishment and development of the new international governance system, but also greatly promoted the revolutionary change of world's energy system toward low-carbon development. Low-carbon management thus becomes an emerging megatrend. Focusing on solving common and urgent issues such as greenhouse gases reduction from energy exploitation, conversion and utilization, which are commonly faced by industries, this special issue mainly explores how to realize the low-carbon management by fostering energy technology innovation and energy management performance promotion. To boost the low-carbon management, this special issue aims to cover the innovative research of theories, methods and practices of low-carbon management. To accomplish a wider dissemination of the recent studies in low-carbon management, an open call for papers in Frontiers of Engineering Management was announced. After a high standard refereeing of all submissions, 12 papers were finally accepted for publication in this special issue. These papers show a variety of research topics of interest in low-carbon management.
