Monitoring, Diagnosis, Analysis, and Control of Stability in Power Systems

Dear Colleagues,

The large-scale integration of power electronic equipment and renewable energies has introduced more flexible adjustment methods for the operation and control of power systems. However, the unique structural characteristics of renewable energy units and the control strategies of power electronic equipment have reintroduced stability issues in power systems, including those related to angle, voltage, frequency and oscillation. Notably, the triggering factors and underlying nature of these stability challenges differ from those previously encountered. Additionally, the dynamic interaction of electrical equipment across multiple time scales adds complexity to these stability issues. Consequently, traditional small signal analysis and numerical simulation methods are insufficient to effectively address these emerging challenges in power system stability.

This Special Issue seeks recent research contributions that address the complexities of power system stability in the context of the high integration of power electronics and renewable energies, with a specific focus on both transmission and distribution networks. We invite submissions on a broad range of topics, including, but not limited to, the following:

• Advanced analysis methods for power system stability;
• Innovative monitoring technologies for detecting stability issues;
• Cutting-edge control strategies to enhance stability;
• Comprehensive research on the wideband oscillation;
• Emerging research trends in power system stability.

The goal of this Special Issue is to offer readers a deeper understanding of power system stability issues and foster advancements in monitoring, diagnosis, analysis and control methodologies. We welcome high-quality research papers that contribute to the field and promote further innovation.

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. 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.
