Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue on “2D Materials for Electrochemical Energy Storage and Conversion” will cover various aspects of the technology, engineering and applications demonstrating significant advances of two-dimensional materials in energy research. Since graphene was first experimentally isolated in 2004, innumerable other 2D materials such as transition metal oxides, transition metal carbides/nitrides (MXenes), dichalcogenides etc. have been increasingly investigated. The salient properties of these materials, including electrical conductivity, redox potential, and high packing density, as well as their surface chemistry (e.g., electrocatalytic activity and polarity), are unparalleled, offering them potential roles in electrochemical energy storage and conversion. Therefore, these 2D materials and their composites can be extensively exploited for electrochemical energy storage (supercapacitors, batteries, etc.) and energy conversion (fuel cells, thermoelectric devices, etc.). This Special Issue is focused on recent and innovative research articles forecasting the extraordinary potential of emerging 2D materials in energy-related applications, and will be informative and useful for the readers.
The scope includes, but is not limited to batteries, electrochemical capacitors, hybrids of both, and electrochemical water splitting.

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.
