Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Sustainable tools for energy conversion are becoming increasingly important across various energy sub-fields worldwide. In particular, the processes involved in solar photovoltaic systems; consentrated solar systems; wind turbines and their alternators; harvesting devices working under mechanical, electromagnetic, thermal, and optical stresses; and battery technologies with invertor/convertor circuitries have garnered significant interest. It is widely known that even a 1% increase in energy conversion efficiency can lead to substantial cost savings for the gloabl energy sector. Therefore, it is imperative that we promote sustainable efforts on energy conversion mechanisms. In this context, the scope of our Special Issue includes innovative design and prototype production in materials science, as well as improvements in the efficiency of auxiliary equipment used during energy conversion processes. Additionally, contributions focused on enhancing the efficiency of chemical reactions in any fuel-cell or battery system are also welcome for submission 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. Processes 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 2400 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.
