Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Dynamic Line rating (DLR) is one key element to unlock power line ratings and increase grid flexibility today. Up to 30% or more power above the traditional static ratings may be available on existing power lines, and some sensors can actually increase system awareness through real-time measurements. But this technology can only be effectively implemented if proper forecasting is carried out. Today, forecasting of Dynamic Line Rating up to two days in advance can be properly estimated using appropriate tools. Using those forecasts can optimize the overall efficiency of the network utilization while guaranteeing security and safety, and it can be critical to solve several utilities' issues in congested networks. Forecasting of Dynamic Line Rating can also be used to significantly increase the market welfare by increasing e.g. cross-border lines capacity ; it can also help accelerate renewables integration, and thus the transition to a carbon-neutral society, by providing more overhead line capacity to the network and by avoiding connection delays. However, those applications need a reliable forecasting of dynamic line ratings to be successfully and efficiently carried out.
As DLR depends on weather conditions, forecasting beyond a few hours usually entails meteorological forecasting as well, and appropriate correlations with on-site measurements to avoid any risky congestions. Moreover, these tools have to be integrated in the SCADA system of TSOs (transmission system operators). 
DLR Forecasting is now a mature technology and is already in use worldwide. Many specific tools have been developed for DLR forecasting. This issue is devoted to the presentation of these new tools.

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.

Keywords

  • dynamic line rating (aerial power line and underground cable)
  • forecasting of dynamic line rating (day(s) ahead, hours ahead)
  • meteorological forecasting of wind production (low wind and high wind)
  • financial impact of appropriate day ahead forecasting of dynamic line rating
  • practical applications by system operators would be particularly welcome. New trends in R&D in that field are also very welcome
