Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I am pleased to invite submissions to this Special Issue of Energies, entitled “Innovations in Metal Hydrides and Advanced Thermal Management in Hydrogen Energy Storage Systems.” Metal hydrides have been regarded as a promising solution to hydrogen energy storage thanks to their low storage pressure and high volumetric capacity. At the same time, however, they require an effective method to manage the heat associated with exothermic/endothermic reactions. In line with the rapid development of hydrogen energy systems, advances in metal hydrides for hydrogen storage technology are required.
The Special Issue will cover the advances in metal hydride hydrogen storage, the cooling and heating of metal hydrides, and the utilization of hot (or cold) waste. Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Material development and characterization;
- Thermal conductivity of metal hydrides;
- Design of reactor vessels;
- Cooling and heating during hydrogen absorption and desorption;
- Use of waste heat.

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.
