Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the increasing penetration of renewable systems, the role of power electronic converters becomes essential, despite several challenges existing simultaneously. First, for PV and wind power converters, the small-signal and large-signal stability issues are still not fully addressed. Second, the incentive and supportive schemes for the integration of energy storage system and Power-to-X applications need to be further developed and commercialized. Last but not least, the emerging advances of wide-bandgap semiconductors provide an opportunity to improve the power density and the efficiency of the power converters for renewable systems as well as electric vehicles. To showcase the recent progress in power electronics in renewable systems, this Special Issue will include but is not limited to the following topics:

  • New converter topologies in renewable systems;
  • Wide-bandgap devices-based converter design in renewable systems;
  • Stability analysis and enhancement of grid-connected renewable systems;
  • Active grid voltage and frequency support with renewable systems;
  • Power-to-X application with power electronics-based renewable systems;
  • Integration of storage systems for renewables;
  • Power electronics in EV charging and vehicle-to-X systems;
  • Power electronics in battery management system.

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. Electronics 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 2400 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.
