Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Power transmission and distribution systems, which include power electronic converters, are becoming more crucial as renewable energy and electric car technology advances. Transmission and distribution networks increasingly have additional responsibilities in addition to providing energy to consumers, such as lowering carbon emissions and coordinating with other industries like transportation networks. However, there are several obstacles to the safe and cost-effective functioning of transmission and distribution networks due to the abundance of wind and solar resources, growing loads, and major uncertainty. Simultaneously, devices like energy storage and the expanding energy market bring with them increased complexity and flexibility. This Special Issue focuses on two primary areas in light of these trends: first, innovative power electronic equipment topology, control, and reliability, including DC circuit breakers, modular multilevel power transformers, and solid-state transformers, and second, cutting-edge techniques for modern distribution systems, including the proper planning, efficient and reliable operation, effective strategies of participating in markets, the mechanism design of local energy markets, and other relevant topics.
