Renewable Energy

Dear Colleagues,

Renewable energy is a promising energy source in order not to have emission of carbon dioxide at the time of power generation. Although renewable energy is mainly exploited photovoltaic energy or wind energy, however it changes by climate conditions, stabilization of electric power is needed. The smart grid attracts attention as research on stabilization and effective use of renewable energy in recent years, and research on a smart grid is advanced in the world. As core technology of smart grid, power electronics, optimization technology, demand response, smart meter, large storage battery, cooperative control, etc. are needed, and it is technology indispensable to large-scale introduction of renewable energy. In this special issue, the contribution of the paper about the circumference technology for large-scale introduction of renewable energy is expected broadly.
