Chemical Hydrogen Storage Materials for Hydrogen Generation

Dear Colleagues,

Hydrogen is expected to play a key role as an energy carrier in future energy systems of the world. However, hydrogen storage is a crucial step in supplying hydrogen fuel to an end user, both for embedded systems and energy storage for stationary applications.

Without effective and efficient storage systems, a hydrogen economy will be difficult to achieve. Hydrogen storage in solid materials constitutes alternatives that possess the potential to surpass the storage densities of compressed and liquid hydrogen. In particular, the high volumetric density, storage at near-ambient conditions, and significantly improved safety are important driving forces for research activities for hydrogen storage in solid compounds.

This Special Issue aims to collect original research or review articles on different classes of materials for hydrogen storage both from a fundamental and an applied point of view. Different types of materials for solid hydrogen storage, including metal and complex hydrides, perovskites, nanotubes and magnetic materials, spinel ferrites, high-entropy alloys and nanoporous materials, will be considered.

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.
