Advanced Studies for PEM Fuel Cells in Hydrogen-Fueled Vehicles: 2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

Fuel cells have a promising chance of becoming the devices of the future in the production of electrical work (electricity) from a range of different chemical fuels. Interest in fuel cells has increased in recent decades due to the negative facts related to the production of electrical work via conventional combustion of fossil fuels. The disadvantages include insufficiently effective conversion into a usable form, environmental pollution, exploitation of global reserves, political domination, and control over countries which are rich in fossil fuels.

Fuel cells offer more efficient conversion when using fossil fuels, and their technology offers further advantages when the fuel is hydrogen from renewable fuels or hydrogen from other renewable sources. They are devices that reduce CO₂ emissions per unit of electricity produced when fossil fuels are the primary source and make the use of renewable fuels and renewable sources in transport practical.

While much effort is devoted to fuel cells in hydrogen-fueled vehicles, there is a pressing need to innovate and demonstrate technologies to be implemented in this area. This Special Issue is focused on bringing together innovative developments, technologies, and solutions in the field of fuel cells in hydrogen-fueled vehicles.

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.
