Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The depletion of fossil fuels and fast-progressing technological innovations raises severe, global ecological and energy concerns. Therefore, the universal energy paradigm is swiftly bending from fossil fuels to sustainable renewable energy storage and zero-emission hydrogen energy generation sources.
Supercapacitors, a well-known electrochemical capacitor from the family of batteries, have triggered remarkable research interest because of their features, such as cost-effectiveness, fast charging ability, high power density, and long cycle span. The supercapacitor market will grow into a multi-billion-dollar business worldwide by the year 2041 and will cover nearly 10% of the battery market as per IDTechEx market reports.
Additionally, hydrogen is the most significant energy source due to its high efficiency, clean and green fuel, and high energy density, substituting traditional fossil fuel-based energy sources to achieve a zero-emission and pollution-free environment. South Korea and a few European countries have already opened hydrogen-filling fuel stations for vehicles. Toyota and Hyundai, etc., have produced hydrogen energy-operated vehicles for transportation.
We invite the prospective authors to submit research or review articles to this Special Issue of Applied Sciences before the deadline of 20 March 2023.
This Special Issue will publish high-quality reviews and original research papers, in the fields of:
- Supercapacitors;
- Energy storage devices;
- Electrocatalytic hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions;
- Photocatalytic hydrogen generation.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
