Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Fuel cell vehicles promise to be far more efficient, produce low or zero emissions, and operate cleaner than internal combustion based vehicles. The energy density of a fuel cell is greater than that of a battery and can be refueled much faster than a battery. Fuel cells theoretically have the capability of producing electrical energy as long as hydrogen and oxygen are supplied to the electrodes. Hence there is an increasing interest in the application of fuel cells for propulsion and also for on-board power generation. The purpose of this special issue is to address the advances in research related to the use of fuel cells for transportation electrification. We invite original manuscripts presenting recent advances in this area with special reference to the following topics:

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.
