Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Renewable energy agencies around the world are investing money in the direction of buildings for the green zero-emissions future through the use of green or blue hydrogen. Funding rounds and investments worldwide are expected to play a significant role in supporting commercial-scale deployments of renewable hydrogen and facilitating cost reductions in production–storage–utilisation of hydrogen technologies. The IEA report has found that clean hydrogen is currently enjoying unprecedented political and business momentum with the number of policies and projects around the world expanding rapidly. Now is the time to scale up technologies and bring down costs to allow hydrogen to become widely used. The pragmatic and actionable recommendations that are provided to governments and industry will make it possible to take full advantage of this increasing momentum. Finally, educational materials should be developed and spread green knowledge about fuel cells and hydrogen in schools and beyond. For a practice-oriented and holistic science education, curiosity and excitement about renewable energy can be fostered through science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
You are invited to submit your research work, technical reports, and review articles on hydrogen technologies. They may cover applications in buildings, the industrial sector, mobile applications, safety, standalone systems, unhuman aircrafts, sensors, marine sector, space, automotive, and the transition from using oil and gas to hydrogen.

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. Applied Sciences 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.
