Computational Modeling and Intelligent Simulation of Next-Generation Energy Systems
This special issue belongs to the section “Algorithms for Multidisciplinary Applications“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid transformation of today’s energy landscape, driven by renewable integration, distributed generation, electrification, and digitalization, requires advanced computational tools capable of capturing complex, multiscale, and dynamic behaviors. This Special Issue focuses on innovative approaches for the modeling and simulation of next-generation energy systems, including intelligent algorithms, high-performance computational frameworks, and data-driven techniques that enable accurate analysis, optimization, and control of modern power and energy systems.
We invite original research and review papers that explore novel computational models, intelligent simulation methodologies, and cross-disciplinary strategies for understanding and designing future energy systems. Topics of interest include mathematical modeling, AI-enhanced simulations, digital twins, optimization-based frameworks, and real-time simulation environments. Contributions addressing challenges in renewable energy systems, smart grids, energy storage, microgrids, and integrated energy networks are particularly welcome.
This Special Issue aims to bring together researchers from energy engineering, computer science, applied mathematics, and related fields to advance the state of the art in computational modeling and simulation for the next generation of sustainable, resilient, and intelligent energy systems.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. Algorithms is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 1800 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.
