Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the high penetration of distributed renewable energy and increasing power loads, the uncertainty of sources and loads leads to increasingly significant shortages of electric power generations and supplies, which brings a serious challenge to the operating safety of the power distribution system. To overcome this issue, it is necessary to improve operation flexibility through the coordinated regulation of sources, loads, and energy storage systems. Therefore, this Special Issue is devoted to disseminating recent research efforts and developing AC/DC Distribution Systems with High-Penetration of Renewable Energy. Topics of research include but are not limited to the following:
- Uncertainty modeling and the analysis of AC/DC distribution systems with high-penetration of renewable energy;
- Optimal planning of AC/DC power distribution systems for the higher accommodation of renewable energy;
- Optimal operation and interaction of multi-energy systems in AC/DC distribution systems;
- Flexible operation and coordinated control of AC/DC distribution systems;
- Multi-agent game modeling and theory in distribution systems;
- Cloud-edge collaboration frameworks and their application in distribution systems;
- Demand response modeling and strategies in distribution systems;
- Stability analysis and control of AC/DC distribution systems with high-penetration of renewable energy;
- Application of artificial intelligence (AI) and big data technologies for AC/DC distribution 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 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.
