History

• The journal was launched in 2022 as an open-access title, part of the Royal Society of Chemistry's wider transition towards gold open access in energy research.本刊于 2022 年以开放获取形式创刊，是英国皇家化学会在能源研究领域推进金色开放获取的一部分。
• It was created to give energy researchers a dedicated venue for chemistry-led work spanning materials, devices and systems-level evaluation.其创办目的是为能源研究者提供专门发表平台，刊载以化学为主导、涵盖材料、器件与系统评价的工作。
• Volker Presser, a materials scientist working on electrochemical energy storage, was appointed founding editor-in-chief and has framed the journal's inclusive and rigorous editorial stance.从事电化学储能研究的材料科学家 Volker Presser 出任创刊主编，并确立了本刊包容而严谨的编辑立场。
• The journal charges an article processing charge of 2,200 pounds and publishes all content open access under Creative Commons licences.本刊收取 2200 英镑的文章处理费，全部内容以知识共享许可开放获取出版。
• It is indexed in Web of Science ESCI, Scopus, DOAJ and the Open Access Journals Index, and its 2025 impact factor is 6.3, up from 4.3 in 2024.本刊被 Web of Science 的 ESCI、Scopus、DOAJ 与开放获取期刊索引收录，2025 年影响因子为 6.3，高于 2024 年的 4.3。
• The journal reports a first decision within 10 days for all submissions and 42 days for peer-reviewed papers.本刊公布的全部投稿首次决定中位时间为 10 天，经同行评审论文为 42 天。

Editors

• The editor-in-chief is Volker Presser, who leads research on electrochemical energy storage at the INM Leibniz Institute for New Materials and Saarland University in Germany.主编为 Volker Presser，他在德国莱布尼茨新材料研究所与萨尔大学从事电化学储能研究。
• The editorial board spans electrochemistry, materials chemistry, photovoltaics, catalysis and energy systems analysis, mirroring the journal's breadth.编委会覆盖电化学、材料化学、光伏、催化与能源系统分析，与期刊的广度相呼应。
• Manuscripts are submitted through the Royal Society of Chemistry's ScholarOne system and reviewed by external experts in the relevant energy subfield.稿件通过英国皇家化学会的 ScholarOne 系统投稿，并由相关能源子领域的外部专家评审。
• As a gold open-access journal, all accepted articles are immediately free to read, and authors retain copyright under a Creative Commons licence.作为金色开放获取期刊，所有录用文章即时免费阅读，作者以知识共享许可保留版权。
• Editorial policy emphasises transformative rather than incremental work, and encourages submissions that connect materials discovery with device-level performance.编辑方针强调变革性而非渐进式研究，并鼓励把材料发现与器件性能相连接的工作。
• The journal publishes research papers, reviews and perspectives, with reviews typically commissioned by the editorial team.本刊发表研究论文、综述与观点文章，综述通常由编辑团队约稿。
