Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
One of the most important pillars upon which the green transition toward future global sustainable development is based is energy production from fuel cells using hydrogen. Increasingly stringent air pollution and climate change legislation that is being adopted by countries around the world is paving the way toward the widespread application of hydrogen and fuel cell technologies.
As a result, the scientific community is focusing its efforts on the development of advanced fuel cells that provide higher power output, with the aim of reducing the cost of electricity production and enabling hydrogen-sourced energy to conquer global energy markets.
Moreover, advances in green hydrogen technologies such as storage, transportation, electrolyzers, and purifiers have opened the way for the implementation of hydrogen in all sectors of industry, i.e., power generators, steam boilers, maritime industries, aviation, etc.
This Special Issue aims to bring together innovations in the “Sustainable Development of Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Technologies” in order to further increase the impact of hydrogen on the global energy market. Original research articles, comprehensive reviews, and well-documented case studies will be considered for publication.
Dr. Petros G. Savva
