Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrochemical conversion and energy storage systems play vital roles in addressing the increasing demand for sustainable energy solutions. These systems encompass a wide range of technologies that enable efficient energy conversion, storage, and utilization.
Electrochemical conversion involves the transformation of chemical energy into electrical energy, or vice versa, through redox reactions. One example can be seen with fuel cells, which are capable of converting the chemical energy of fuels, such as hydrogen, into electricity with high efficiency and minimal environmental impact. Another example is electrolyzers, which use electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen for energy storage or the production of clean fuels.
Electrochemical capacitors, commonly known as supercapacitors, provide high power density and possess fast charging/discharging capabilities. They are ideal for applications requiring quick bursts of energy, such as regenerative braking in vehicles and smoothing out power fluctuations in renewable energy systems.
This Special Issue aims to publish high-quality research and review papers related to electrochemical conversion and energy storage systems. Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to:
- Advances in electrode materials;
- Electrochemical energy storage technologies;
- Electrolysis and fuel cells;
- Electrochemical energy conversion for renewable energy integration.

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. Energies 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.
