Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Fuel cells and hydrogen storage technologies are vital in the global transition to sustainable energy. With a surge in green hydrogen production anticipated in the coming years, finding innovative applications for this eco-friendly energy carrier is essential. One of the most promising prospects is its seamless integration into fuel cell technology, celebrated for its simplicity, quiet operation, high efficiency, and modular design. Envisioning a world where hydrogen fuel cell vehicles seamlessly integrate with smart homes and cities is close. However, this vision is not without challenges, including modelling, control, infrastructure development, and cost optimisation.

Our Special Issue on "Advances in Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Storage Technologies" is set to showcase the latest breakthroughs in this field. We invite contributions on a wide spectrum of topics, including advanced control strategies, innovations in hydrogen fuel tank integration, optimising green hydrogen refuelling strategies, and various technologies in terms of hydrogen storage. We also encourage comprehensive review submissions on:

Fuel Cell Advancements: Highlighting the latest developments in fuel cell technology, such as improvements in membrane materials, catalysts, and fuel cell stack designs.

Hydrogen Storage Techniques Advances: Reviewing progress in various hydrogen storage methods, from small-scale solutions to large-scale storage, including hydrides, ammonia storage, compressed gas storage, and geological storage techniques.

This Special Issue is set to be a hub for the most recent advances in the theory, design, modelling, and applications within the realm of fuel cells and hydrogen storage. Share your research with us to contribute to the ongoing revolution towards a sustainable, hydrogen-powered future.

Your contributions are pivotal in shaping the future of clean energy. Join us in Energies at MDPI in advancing the frontiers of hydrogen-based technologies and energy storage solutions.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
