Global warming and climate change call for urgent minimization of the impact of human activities on the environment. There is a great need for the improvement of resource efficiencies by integrating various life-supporting systems. The challenge is on the energy, water and environment systems to integrate and become more sustainable. This research field has received increased attention over the past years with studies across the energy, water and environment systems that optimized different engineering problems. The present Special Issue stems from four Conferences on Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems held in 2020, in four countries of three continents. This review introduction article intends to introduce the topical field and the articles included in this Special Issue of Optimization and Engineering.
