Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The integration of renewable energy sources into modern power systems plays a crucial role in ensuring global sustainable development. However, the intermittent and variable nature of renewables energy sources such as solar, wind, and tidal energy introduces significant challenges in terms of system stability, efficiency, and reliability. This Special Issue aims to gather cutting-edge research and recent advances in the field of optimization and control strategies for renewable energy and renewable energy-integrated systems.
We welcome original research articles, review papers, and innovative case studies that focus on optimization algorithms, intelligent control systems, real-time energy management, smart grid technologies, and hybrid renewable systems. Topics of interest also include predictive control, distributed energy resource management, machine/deep learning applications in control, energy storage optimization, and resilience strategies for power systems under high renewable deployment.
This Special Issue provides a platform for scholars and practitioners to present state-of-the-art developments and share knowledge that supports the transition toward clean and sustainable energy systems. We encourage submissions that bridge the gap between theory and real-world implementation, and particularly those that demonstrate tangible contributions to environmental quality and energy efficiency.
We look forward to your valuable contributions.

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 System Innovation 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 1600 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.
