Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
To help to address global environmental problems caused by carbon emissions, the demand for developing renewable energy such as wind and solar power is growing rapidly. Considering their intermittent nature, reliable and safe energy storage systems play an essential role in developing a sustainable and modern society. The choice of low-cost, safer, environmentally benign materials is essential to realize effective renewable energy storage.
The present Special Issue aims to provide the most up-to-date knowledge relating to advanced materials in energy storage and conversion systems. For work to be published in this issue, it must be linked to the energy storage and conversion field. Topics include but are not limited to the following: 1) electrode and membrane materials for batteries; 2) new inorganic or organic materials for energy systems; 3) hydrogen production and storage technology; 4) fuel cells; 5) long-duration energy storage (LDES) technology; 6) catalysis for the conversion of syngas (derived from coal, natural gas, etc.).
We would like to extend our sincerest gratitude to Dr. Qiming Tang from the University of South Carolina for his contribution in editing this Special Issue.
Dr. Nansheng Xu
Guest Editor
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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
