Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to gather high-quality review articles focusing on advanced propulsion systems and green energy research for maritime decarbonization. The objective is to provide readers with a comprehensive platform to access a wide range of topics related to achieving net-zero in the shipping sector while offering novel methodologies, valuable insights, and perspectives on the future of shipping.
The scope of this Special Issue is not limited to propulsion systems and alternative fuels but extends to a broader set of themes. For example, contributions may address the regulatory frameworks surrounding green fuels and their resulting economic and technical implications. Furthermore, discussions may cover the environmental impacts and risk factors associated with the application of new fuels and technologies.
By embracing this technological diversity, the Special Issue intends to explore multiple dimensions through which shipping can progress toward net-zero. We warmly welcome manuscripts that seek to contribute to this effort.

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. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
