Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The European Commission has increased the reduction targets of CO2 emissions for cars and vans, setting a new target of 100% for 2035 within the Fit for 55 packages; therefore, it will not be permissible to sell internal combustion engine cars and vans on the European market from 2035.
Sustainable aviation fuels (advanced biofuels and electro-fuels) have the potential to significantly reduce aircraft emissions.
It has been estimated that the use of renewable and low-carbon fuels in maritime transport in Europe could allow reducing the greenhouse gas intensity of the energy used onboard ships by up to 75% by 2050.
In extending to the whole world on the basis of the European context, the use of hydrogen and fuel cells systems on any type of vehicle propelled by electric motors makes it possible to increase vehicle range, reduce refueling times, and reduce pollution and the generation of climate-altering gas emissions.
The intention of this Special Issue is to encourage scholars and experts to deepen the study of new possible powertrains based on fuel cells systems in the process of electrifying land, sea, and air mobility of people and goods by investigating and solving problems associated with these powertrains.
Dr. Giuseppe De Lorenzo
Guest Editor
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. World Electric Vehicle Journal is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 1400 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.
