Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are thrilled to announce the upcoming Special Issue of MDPI’s journal Energies, dedicated to cutting-edge research on hydrogen production as a pivotal energy vector. This edition aims to highlight the latest advancements, challenges, and opportunities in the field while fostering a multidisciplinary dialogue on the path towards a sustainable future.
Hydrogen has emerged as a game-changer in the energy landscape, with the potential to revolutionise various sectors, including transportation, industry, and power generation. As the demand for clean and efficient energy solutions continues to grow, it is crucial to explore the production techniques, storage methodologies, and utilization strategies that will unlock hydrogen's full potential.
This Special Issue invites researchers and experts from around the globe to contribute their original research, critical reviews, and insightful perspectives on hydrogen production. We encourage submissions covering a wide range of topics, including but not limited to, the following:
- Novel catalysts and materials for hydrogen production;
- Electrolysis and photoelectrochemical methods;
- Biomass and renewable resources for hydrogen generation;
- Techno-economic analysis and life cycle assessment of hydrogen production processes;
- Integration of hydrogen production systems with renewable energy sources;
- Hydrogen storage and transportation technologies;
- Hydrogen applications in industry, transportation, and power generation;
- Policy, regulatory, and economic frameworks for hydrogen deployment.
By bringing together diverse research contributions, this Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of hydrogen production as an energy vector. We believe that this collection of articles will not only deepen our understanding of hydrogen technologies but also stimulate further research and development in this crucial field.
Accepted papers will undergo rigorous peer review, ensuring the highest scientific standards and providing authors with valuable feedback to enhance their work. Furthermore, selected papers will have the opportunity to be featured in the journal’s open access format, reaching a broad audience of researchers, policymakers, and industry professionals.
Join us in this exciting endeavour to advance the frontiers of hydrogen production as a key enabler of a sustainable energy future. We look forward to receiving your contributions and working together towards a cleaner and more resilient world.

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.
