Energy & Environmental Science is an international journal dedicated to publishing exceptionally important and high quality, agenda-setting research tackling the key global and societal challenges of ensuring the provision of energy and protecting our environment for the future.

The scope is intentionally broad and the journal recognises the complexity of issues and challenges relating to energy conversion and storage, alternative fuel technologies and environmental science. For work to be published it must be linked to the energy-environment nexus and be of significant general interest to our community-spanning readership. All scales of studies and analysis, from impactful fundamental advances, to interdisciplinary research across the (bio)chemical, (bio/geo)physical sciences and chemical engineering disciplines are welcomed.

Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

Solar energy conversion and photovoltaics
Solar fuels and artificial photosynthesis
Fuel cells
Hydrogen storage and (bio) hydrogen production
Materials for energy systems
Capture, storage and fate of CO2, including chemicals and fuels from CO2
Catalysis for a variety of feedstocks (for example, oil, gas, coal, biomass and synthesis gas)
Biofuels and biorefineries
Materials in extreme environments
Environmental impacts of energy technologies
Global atmospheric chemistry and climate change as related to energy systems
Water-energy nexus
Energy systems and networks
Globally applicable principles of energy policy and techno-economics
