Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite submissions to this Special Issue of Electronics focused on “Power System Stability and Control”.
With the integration of renewable energy and high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission into power systems, the number of power electronic equipment in power systems is quickly increasing. However, due to the complex control, nonlinear switching, and wide-frequency dynamics of power electronic equipment, many new stability issues have emerged, including wide-frequency oscillations and synchronization instability dominated by phase-locked loops. Modern power systems are facing unprecedented challenges in terms of both small-disturbance and transient stability due to the growing structural complexity of grids and heterogeneity of power sources/loads. These issues may cause renewable energy unit disconnection, equipment damage, and even system shutdown. Analyzing and improving the stability of power systems is becoming a key challenge in their planning, operation, and control. Therefore, this Special Issue focuses on the stability analysis and advanced control of power systems dominated by power electronics. Original research articles and reviews are welcome. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:
- The identification and monitoring of instability sources in power systems;
- Stability modeling and simulations of power systems dominated by power electronics;
- Instability mechanism analysis dominated by renewable energy and HVDC;
- Wide-frequency oscillation analysis and mitigation of modern power systems;
- Robust stability control strategies for power systems, including model-driven and data-driven approaches;
- Application of artificial intelligence in power system stability analysis and control;
- Industrial cases and experience.
I look forward to receiving your 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. Electronics 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.
