Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to share the success of our Special Issue “State-of-the-Art Research in Advanced Materials for Energy Storage Applications”.
In the first volume, we successfully published five papers:

We are now preparing to launch the second volume of this Special Issue, “State-of-the-Art Research in Advanced Materials for Energy Storage Applications: 2nd Edition”. We would like to invite you to submit your research to this Special Issue.
In the past few decades, the need to develop alternative energy conversion and storage systems has increased dramatically due to rapid global economic growth, environmental issues, and the depletion of fossil fuels. As two kinds of pollution-free clean energy, light and electricity have attracted increasing interest from the scientific community.
Advanced materials are of interest from the perspectives of both scientific research and mechanical manufacturing, especially for energy storage applications. Their suitability for such applications is attributed to their unique properties, such as their composition and large surface area, as well as their tunable porous structure, particle size, and surface chemistry. Depending on the methodology used for their synthesis, advanced materials will continue to play a critical role in dealing with global challenges.
The articles presented in this Special Issue will cover various topics, including, but not limited to, photoelectrocatalysis materials, solar cells, solar photoelectrocatalysis degradation, energy storage devices (batteries and electrochemical supercapacitors), and these materials’ synthesis, properties, and applications.
We invite authors to contribute research articles or reviews on the broad range of topics addressed above.

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.
