Guide for Authors
Aims and scope
The International Journal of Hydrogen Energy aims to provide a central vehicle for the exchange and dissemination of new ideas, technology developments and research results in the field of Hydrogen Energy between scientists and engineers throughout the world. The emphasis is placed on original research, both analytical and experimental, covering all aspects of Hydrogen Energy, including production, storage, transmission, utilization, enabling technologies, environmental impact, economic and international aspects of hydrogen and hydrogen carriers such as NH3, CH4, alcohols, etc.
The utilization includes thermochemical (combustion), photochemical, electrochemical (fuel cells) and nuclear conversion of hydrogen, hydrogen isotopes and/or hydrogen carriers to thermal, mechanical and electrical energies, and their applications in transportation (including aerospace), industrial, commercial and residential sectors.
When outstanding new advances are made, or when new areas have been developed to a definitive stage, special review articles will be considered. Shorter communications are also welcome.
This journal welcomes contributions that support and advance the UN's sustainable development goals, in particular SDG 7 (Affordable and clean energy)
Your Paper Your Way
We now differentiate between the requirements for new and revised submissions. You may choose to submit your manuscript as a single Word or PDF file to be used in the refereeing process. Only when your paper is at the revision stage, will you be requested to put your paper in to a 'correct format' for acceptance and provide the items required for the publication of your article.
To find out more, please visit the Preparation section below.
Types of Paper
The International Journal of Hydrogen Energy accepts research papers, review papers and short communications.
Research papers:
• A research paper presents the results of investigations on a relevant subject matter.
• The length should not normally exceed 8000 words and 12 diagrams - this corresponds to approximately 12 journal pages.
• Guide for Authors should be followed.
Review Papers:
• A review paper succinctly reviews recent progress on a specific subject of active research. It should summarize the current state of knowledge of the topic by discussing the findings presented in recent research papers.
• The length should not normally exceed 12000 words and 20 diagrams - this corresponds to approximately 18 journal pages.
• Guide for Authors should be followed.
Short communications:
• A short communication informs the scientific community about recent research, which the authors wish to publish as quickly as possible, without writing a detailed full length research paper.
• The length should not normally exceed 3000 words and 4 diagrams - this corresponds to approximately 4 journal pages.
• Guide for Authors should be followed.
