Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Growing concerns regarding global warming and the depletion of petroleum resources have led to increased research efforts to develop renewable energy production and energy storage technologies. A critical element in the pursuit of this quest is finding efficient and cost-effective catalysts to use in electrochemical energy conversion and storage processes. This Special Issue will focus on using bi-functional electrocatalysts to generate power or hydrogen, and it will include reviews and original research describing recent developments and advances in bi-functional catalysts for their design, preparation, and characterization with unique properties to improve catalytic performance for energy conversion and storage system applications, as well as our understanding of photocatalytic reactions.
Submit your paper and select the Journal “Catalysts” and the Special Issue “Bi-functional Catalysts for Electrochemical Systems of Energy Conversion and Storage” via: MDPI submission system. Please contact the Guest Editor or the journal editor (cicy.chen@mdpi.com) for any queries. Our papers will be published on a rolling basis and we will be pleased to receive your submission once you have finished it.

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. Catalysts 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 2200 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.
