Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The integration of new advanced technologies into smart energy systems and grids requires a multi-dimensional understanding of and approach to energy demand, energy resources, infrastructure operation, security and costs issues. These technical, economic and, not least, environment-related challenges need a new complex addressing at both theoretical and practical levels. The finding of tangible solutions represents a quest for academia, industry and society in general, implying the exploring and development in searching of the technologies beyond the currently known horizons.
New ideas and findings in smart grids-related fields could offer the opportunity to enhance, optimize and increase energy availability and usage. Namely, these include the optimal and safe usage of available energy resources, efficient energy conversion control solutions, and power systems integration of distributed resources by assuring power quality, security and environment-neutral impact for long term and sustainable development.
This Special Issue aims to highlight novel, innovative and cutting-edge research to address current and future smart grids development and operation.

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. Applied Sciences 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.
