Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advanced energy storage and conversion technologies have already played a crucial role in the fast-expanding market of portable electronic devices and electric vehicles. They are also the key technology for the future of sustainable energy due to the growing concerns around environmental issues (e.g., global climate change) caused by conventional fossil fuels and the intermittent nature of renewable energies. The performance of these devices heavily relies on the properties of applied materials. Exploring new materials that are low-cost, environmentally friendly, high-efficiency, and lightweight is essential to advance such technologies. In addition to performance, enhanced safety and system management of these technologies are also essential for practical applications.
This Special Issue invites all forms of contributions (communications, full papers, perspectives, and comments) in the electrochemical energy storage and conversion field. Lithium-ion and beyond Li-ion battery technologies (e.g., sodium/ magnesium/calcium/zinc/aluminium batteries, metal air, and redox flow batteries, supercapacitors) are all of interest. Topics can range from high-performance materials discovery, new characterization methods, fabrication process innovations, new device designs, safety, materials recycling, interfacial challenges, to reaction kinetics and mechanisms. Both fundamental and applied research in electrochemical energy storage technologies via experimental or computational methods is welcome.

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.
