Preface

The 2025 International Symposium on Energy Science and Engineering (ISESE 2025) was successfully held in Maoming, China, from May 16 to 18, 2025. Serving as an international platform for collaboration and exchange, the symposium aimed to foster open dialogue, knowledge sharing, and future partnerships among global experts in energy science and engineering. Attracting over 60 attendees, the conference culminated in rigorously peer-reviewed proceedings. These publications showcase high-quality interdisciplinary research, highlighting cutting-edge advances across the field. Additionally, the program featured a distinguished lineup of keynote speakers who elevated the academic discourse through their expertise: Prof. Marc A. Rosen (Ontario Tech University, Canada) examined hydrogen energy’s role in advancing sustainability and mitigating environmental impacts; Prof. Weiliang Wang (Jinan University, China) outlined theories and key technologies for state reconstruction of thermodynamic systems in next-generation power networks; Prof. Shunchun Yao (South China University of Technology, China) introduced an online coal property analysis method leveraging multispectral information fusion; Prof. Dou Bin (China University of Geosciences, China) explored AI and big data applications in geothermal energy development.
