Carbon capture and storage is such a hot topic at the moment, particularly in relation to achieving the UN SDGs and the Paris Agreement. We would like to highlight recent publications in Energy Advances which  are relevant to carbon capture and storage research:

A critical review of technologies, costs, and projects for production of carbon-neutral liquid e-fuels from hydrogen and captured CO2 by Harpreet Singh et al.

CO2 removal and 1.5 °C: what, when, where, and how? by Niall Mac Dowell et al.

Direct and mild non-hydroxide activation of biomass to carbons with enhanced CO2 storage capacity by Afnan Altwalaab and Robert Mokaya

Renewable energy technologies like solar energy are of the utmost importance to achieving the UN SDGs and so we are proud that our Editorial Board includes an expert in this area: Professor Anita Ho-Baillie. Professor Ho-Baillie’s research focuses on solar photovoltaic materials and devices including single junctions and multi-junction tandems and, as one of our Associate Editors, she handles a portion of our papers from submission to decision.

Our Advisory Board play an important role in assisting our editorial team with submissions to the journal, so we are very excited to have them on board. More Advisory Board members will be announced soon, so sign up to receive the latest updates.

We are excited to announce a new showcase collection entitled ‘Energy Frontiers: Hydrogen‘ to highlight the latest cutting-edge research on hydrogen technologies for a more sustainable future, including hydrogen production, storage, decarbonisation, scale-up and more. Join us for our related LiveStream session on this topic on 15th November 2022!

The collection spans many RSC journals publishing high quality energy content, including Energy Advances, Energy & Environmental Science, Sustainable Energy & Fuels, Journal of Materials Chemistry A, Chemical Society Reviews, Chemical Science.

It is expected that the use of Hydrogen will contribute significantly to the decarbonisation of the energy sector, and many Hydrogen production routes (like water electrolysis) are renewable and low-carbon. There are many challenges associated with widespread implementation of Hydrogen technologies however, meaning that continued research and innovation into this topic is as important as ever.

What do you envision to be the next frontier in Hydrogen Energy technologies? If you’re working at the forefront of this research area we welcome you to submit your own hydrogen energy research to our journals.

Reflective of the importance of energy storage to achieving the UN SDGs, the journal is led by Editor-in-Chief Professor Volker Presser (Leibniz Institute for New Materials, Germany) whose research explores electrochemical materials and processes for energy storage. Our Editorial Board members include three further prominent energy storage experts who also handle papers from submission to decision: Professor Guang Feng (Huazhong University of Science and Technology, China), Professor Michael Naguib (Tulane University, USA) and Professor Matthew Suss (Israel Institute of Technology, Israel).
