Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, the demand for high-performance and environmentally sustainable electrode materials has been rapidly increasing, driven by the urgent need for next-generation batteries and supercapacitors in renewable energy storage and portable electronics. Sustainable electrode materials, including inorganic compounds, hybrid systems, and biomass-derived carbons, play a crucial role in achieving high energy density, long cycling stability, and cost-effectiveness, while minimizing environmental impact. In addition, green and scalable synthesis strategies, as well as computational and theoretical insights, are essential for guiding the design of advanced energy storage systems.
This Special Issue, “Sustainable Electrode Materials for Energy Storage,” aims to present the most recent advances in the development, characterization, and application of sustainable electrode materials. We welcome contributions in the form of original research articles, reviews, and communications.
We look forward to receiving your submissions and to your valuable contribution to this Special Issue.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. Inorganics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2200 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.
