New Insights into Power Systems

Dear Colleagues,

As the proportion of new energy sources continuously increases, power systems face the challenge of insufficient flexibility in adjustment capabilities, making power balance and supply assurance increasingly difficult. There is an urgent need to explore comprehensive and interactive methods across all elements of generation, grid, load, and storage to thoroughly support the efficient and low-carbon transformation of power systems, including aspects such as operation, planning, market mechanism design, and policy analysis. For this purpose, this Special Issue is titled "New Insights into Power Systems" and aims to collect high-quality papers from the fields of power system research. We encourage researchers from various fields within the journal’s scope to contribute papers highlighting the latest developments in their research field, or to invite relevant experts and colleagues to do so. Topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:

Keywords：

• Generation–grid–load–storage interaction;
• Power system operation and planning;
• Renewable energy integration;
• Demand response management;
• Low-carbon transition;
• Low-carbon energy policy analysis;
• Market mechanism design;
• Energy storage solutions.
