Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Modern power systems are at the forefront of addressing global energy challenges, including the transition to renewable energy, enhancing grid reliability, and meeting escalating demand for electrification. This Special Issue seeks to showcase pioneering research, novel methodologies, and real-world applications that advance the design, operation, and sustainability of power systems. We welcome advanced research and innovative applications addressing the evolving demands of power systems, ranging from generation and transmission to distribution and end-user management.
Areas relevant to research and application on power system include, but are not limited to, the following: grid stability; power electronics; control strategies for solar, wind, and hybrid systems; demand response; distributed energy resources; battery technologies; hydrogen storage; hybrid storage solutions for grid balancing; climate adaptation; fault detection; self-healing networks; disaster recovery; machine learning; digital twins and predictive analytics for optimization decision-making; grid modernization for electric vehicles (EVs); industrial electrification; carbon-neutral strategies; and cost–benefit analysis for energy transitions.
This Special Issue will publish high-quality, original research papers on the overlapping fields of:
- Renewable energy integration;
- grid technologies;
- Energy storage systems;
- Power system resilience;
- Power system stability and control;
- Innovation in power electronics and equipment;
- Power system protection and control;
- AI and data-driven solutions;
- Electrification and decarbonization;
- Policy, economy, and sustainable development.
We look forward to your submissions.

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.
