Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, the quest for sustainable and efficient energy storage solutions has gained significant momentum, and thermal energy storage (TES) technologies have come to play a crucial role in enhancing the efficiency and reliability of energy systems. The integration of highly efficient TES systems has the potential to revolutionize various sectors, including renewable energy, industrial processes, and building applications. Consequently, this Special Issue aims to collate cutting-edge research and advancements in the field of highly efficient TES technologies.

Researchers are invited to submit original research articles, reviews, and case studies that address a wide range of topics related to highly efficient TES technologies, with areas of interest including, but not being limited to, the following topics:

  • Advanced materials for thermal energy storage;
  • Phase-change materials (PCMs) and their applications;
  • Sensible, latent, and thermochemical storage systems;
  • Novel designs and configurations of TES systems;
  • Heat transfer enhancement in TES;
  • The integration of TES with renewable energy sources;
  • Thermal energy storage for industrial processes;
  • The performance optimization and modeling of TES systems;
  • Thermal energy storage for building applications;
  • Thermal management and control strategies;
  • Economic and environmental assessments of TES technologies.

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.
