Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We invite the submission of research findings for consideration to be included in this Special Issue concerning the Current Advances in Fuel Cell Technology.

With the rising demand to reduce carbon emissions, fuel cell technologies are being regarded as a sustainable power generation solution, having a favorable impact on future energy systems in various applications, from automotive to power generations, including for portable, residential, and power plant applications.

Although substantial effort has been undertaken to develop this technology at various levels from materials to systems, a significant number of challenges remain in the research and development stage. This Special Issue hopes to include papers attempting to propose solutions in the field of fuel cell technology systems to their full achievable extent.

Some key areas of research and development relevant to fuel cell technology are the fundamental investigation, modeling and simulation, and design and control at different levels, i.e., new materials, components, and systems. In addition, innovative solutions, for instance, the integration of fuel cell systems with other technologies, techno-economic analysis, and safety assessment to improve safety and efficiency of the fuel cell system should receive considerable attention in this Special Issue. Review papers are also welcome. All types of fuel cells and their applications are considered relevant.

We eagerly anticipate your valuable research contributions in this Special Issue.

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. Energies 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 2600 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.
