Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The ongoing need for improved energy storage devices continues to challenge the world’s dependence solely on fossil fuels.  Alternative energy sources (e.g. wind, solar, electric) have provided a pathway for the development of advanced storage systems to help achieve one of the grand societal challenges.  There is still considerable work that must be done before an alternative infrastructure becomes commonplace in the global society.  Utilization of carbon-based materials in the context of energy storage has been an ongoing research topic.  There are many advantages to integrating such materials into energy storage devices primary due to the unique physical, chemical, and electrical properties of carbon-based materials.  Therefore, efforts towards making these materials viable for large-scale utilization must continue. 

Energies is pleased to announce a special issue titled “Recent Development of Carbon-Based Materials for Energy Storage Devices”.  This special issue seeks original research aimed at the advancement of carbon-based materials (e.g. carbon nanotubes, graphene, buckyballs, etc.) for the development of energy storage devices.  Such devices include, but are not limited to, batteries, supercapacitors, and fuel cells.  Integration of carbon-based materials into different chemistries is of high interest.  Both simulation and experimental research are highly encouraged for submission.  In addition, interdisciplinary research involving energy and environmental applications are also of interest and encouraged.

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.
