Special Issue Information
Dear colleagues,
The ever-increasing demand for energy throughout the world, coupled with the depletion of fossil fuels and the pollution problems due to their use, firmly calls for a clean and sustainable energy system. In the last decades, interest in the use of renewable sources for the production of energy has been increasing. Furthermore, the intermittent character of these sources and the need to shift the transport sector away from oil as soon as possible makes urgent the development of high capacity storage cells characterized by quick release times, suitable for practical applications. Among the solutions proposed until now, chemical energy storage by means of hydrogen, the clean energy carrier par excellence, will be addressed in this Special Issue, which is focused on the latest findings regarding innovative materials for solid-state hydrogen storage and hydrogen storage systems and recent applications of hydrides in the catalysis and energy storage field.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- Recent developments concerning metallic hydrides, ionic and complex hydrides, chemical and organic hydrides
- Nanoporous materials
- Carbon-based materials
- Catalysts for hydrogen absorption and desorption reactions; hydrides as catalysts
- Hydrogen storage systems
- Hydrides for energy storage applications
- Technological development/challenges in hydrogen technology

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. Batteries 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 2700 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.
