Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
One of the most important pillars upon which the Green Transition is based for future global sustainable development is energy production from fuel cells using hydrogen. The increasingly stringent air pollution and climate change legislations that are being adopted by all countries have paved the way for the widespread application of hydrogen and fuel cell technologies.
As a result, the scientific community is focusing its efforts on the development of advanced fuel cells that have higher power output in order to reduce the cost of electricity production and allow hydrogen energy to conquer the global energy market.
Moreover, advances in green hydrogen technologies such as storage, transportation, electrolyzers, and purifiers have opened the way for the implementation of Hydrogen in all sectors of the industrial production process, i.e., power generators, steam boilers, the marine industry, aviation, etc.
This Special Issue aims to bring together innovations in the Sustainable Development of Fuel Cells with Hydrogen Technologies in order to further increase the impact of hydrogen on the global energy market. Original research articles and comprehensive reviews along with well-documented case studies will be considered for publication.

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.
