Concern about everything related to energy is increasingly latent in the world and therefore
the use of energy saving concepts has been increasing over the past several years. The interest in the
subject has allowed a conceptual evolution in the scientific community regarding the understanding
of the adequate use of energy. The objective of this work is to determine the contribution made
by international institutions to the specialized publications in the area of energy-saving from 1939
to 2018, using Scopus Database API Interface. The methodology followed in this research was to
perform a bibliometric analysis of the whole scientific production indexed in Scopus. The world’s
scientific production has been analysed in the following domains: First the trend over time, types of
publications and countries, second, the main subjects and keywords, third, main institutions and their
main topics, and fourth, the main journals and proceedings that publish on this topic. Then, these data
are presented using community detection algorithms and graph visualization software. With these
techniques, it is possible to determine the main areas of research activity as well as to identify the
structures of the collaboration network in the field of renewable energy. The results of the work show
that the literature in this field have substantially increased during the last 10 years

Sustainable Energy Based on Sunflower Seed Husk Boiler for Residential Buildings
Perea-Moreno, Miguel Ángel; Manzano Agugliaro, Francisco; Perea Moreno, Alberto Jesús (MDPI, 2018)Buildings account for one third of the world’s energy consumption, 70% of which is devoted to heating and cooling. To increase the share of renewables in the energy consumption of buildings, it is necessary to research ...
