Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Hydrogen stands at the forefront of the global transition toward sustainable and decarbonized energy systems. As a clean, versatile energy carrier with the potential to decouple energy production from carbon emissions, hydrogen offers transformative opportunities across multiple sectors—from industry and transportation to power generation and storage. Recent years have witnessed remarkable advancements in hydrogen technologies, driven by the urgent need to meet climate targets, enhance energy security, and foster economic resilience.
This Special Issue "Advances in Hydrogen Production, Storage, and Utilization" aims to provide a comprehensive platform for the dissemination of cutting-edge research, innovative technologies, and critical insights across the hydrogen value chain. Contributions are invited that span fundamental studies and applied research, covering topics such as novel production pathways (including, but not limited to, electrolysis, photochemical, thermochemical, and biological processes), advanced storage materials and systems, and emerging applications in fuel cells, industrial processes, and integrated energy networks.
We particularly welcome interdisciplinary approaches that bridge materials science, engineering, chemistry, and policy perspectives, as well as studies that address the economic, environmental, and social dimensions of hydrogen technologies. By gathering a diverse range of high-quality research articles, reviews, and case studies, this Special Issue seeks to foster dialogue, inspire innovation, and accelerate the deployment of hydrogen solutions at scale.
We warmly invite researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to contribute their latest findings and perspectives to this Special Issue and join us in advancing the frontiers of hydrogen science and technology.
Dr. Guo-Ming Weng
