Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Our society is transcending from an energy economy where fossil resources are used for electricity production into an energy economy where renewable electricity is used for making liquid and gaseous fuels. E-mobility via battery production is following this transition, too. In order to effectively decarbonize the energy sector, energy solutions must be energy efficient, practical, and fit to existing energy converters. Such technological solutions include waste heat to hydrogen, power to gas, lithium-ion batteries, hydrogen fuel cells and electrolyzers, hybrid lithium-ion capacitors, and redox batteries. In addition, coupling advanced sensor technology with digitalization will play a large role in developing zero emission smart communities, modeling technological energy solutions, and understanding the internal states of various energy devices. These topics are an important focus to allow an accelerated transition to a carbon-neutral green energy economy.
This Special Issue targets energy efficient storage and mobility solutions for the green transition with a focus on reviews and relevant modeling tools for our future energy economy.

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.
