Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The efficient exploitation of renewable energy sources is an important step towards complete independence from fossil fuels. Hydrogen is considered by many to be a suitable energy vector to efficiently utilize intermittent and unevenly distributed renewable energy sources. However, while the production of hydrogen from renewable energy sources is technically feasible, the storage of large quantities of hydrogen is challenging. Compared to conventional compressed and cryogenic hydrogen storage, the solid-state storage of hydrogen has many advantages in terms of safety and volumetric energy density. Among the materials available for hydrogen storage, metal hydrides appear to be promising candidates because of their high hydrogen storage properties, especially for stationary applications.
We are pleased to invite you to submit your latest work to the Special Issue “Recent Advances of Hydrogen Storage Hydride Materials” for consideration. You are encouraged to submit original research and review articles that have not been previously published and are not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Hydrogen storage;
- Green hydrogen;
- Metal hydrides materials;
- Low-cost and low-CO2-footprint hydrides;
- Simulations of metal hydride materials;
- Metal hydride storage systems.
This Special Issue aims to provide rigorous peer review and enable rapid publication of cutting-edge research to educate and inspire the scientific community worldwide.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Thi Thu Le
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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
