Nanomaterials in Hydrogen Sustainable Energy

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce a forthcoming Special Issue dedicated to “Nanomaterials in Hydrogen Sustainable Energy”, and we invite researchers to contribute their original research, developments, and perspectives. This Special Issue will highlight how recent achievements in hydrogen technologies benefit from energy-efficient nanoscience and contribute to a clean, economically feasible, and sustainable future.

Renewable hydrogen has emerged as a key vector in the transition to low-carbon energy systems, and nano-engineering has the potential to address the technological and scientific challenges associated with its adoption. Sustainable methods for the production and storage of clean hydrogen, as well as fuel cells, are included in this area. From nanoscale catalysts and new physics-based processes that enhance the efficiency of hydrogen generation to nanomaterials that improve hydrogen storage and fuel cell performance, contributions in this field are pushing the boundaries of what is technologically and economically feasible. Renewable hydrogen's role in greenhouse gas conversion, green synthetic fuels, nanomaterial synthesis, and waste treatment and its incorporation into energy-intensive industrial processes constitute additional subjects of interest.

Submissions are welcome on a broad range of topics, including, but not limited to,

• Energy-efficient improvement technologies for renewable hydrogen;
• Nanocatalysts for hydrogen evolution and oxygen evolution reactions;
• Nanomaterials for high-density and safe hydrogen storage;
• Newly engineered electrodes for advanced fuel cells;
• Theoretical modelling and simulation of hydrogen systems.

By bringing together a diverse range of contributions from across disciplines, we encourage researchers to share their insights; as such, we especially welcome interdisciplinary studies that bridge energy science and engineering.

Join us in shaping the future of clean energy by submitting a manuscript and leaving your footprint in this challenging collection.

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. Materials 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.
