Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Accelerating the development of renewable energy to gradually replace fossil fuels is an essential pathway toward achieving carbon neutrality. It has been predicted that renewable energy will continue to grow, with renewables such as photovoltaic and wind power already accounting for a considerable share of installed grid capacity and power generation. The power system is transforming from a synchronous machine-dominated system to a renewable energy-dominated one. Since renewable energy usually requires inverters for grid connection, the large-scale integration of power electronic devices has led to considerable changes across all segments of the power system—generation, transformation, transmission, distribution and consumption.
This Special Issue aims to deepen our understanding of and refine the technologies employed in high-penetration renewable energy power systems. High-penetration renewable energy power systems face the following challenges: the need for stability analysis and control technologies to ensure their secure and stable operation; the need for suitable generation and grid integration technologies to efficiently and safely connect renewable energy to the grid; and the need to deploy flexible resources to address power regulation needs. In response to these challenges, this research intends to present multi-faceted studies that provide technical support for the development of future power systems.
Papers on (but not limited to) the following themes are welcome:
- Technology for planning and optimizing new-type power systems;
- Stability analysis and control of new-type power systems;
- High-voltage transmission technology for large-scale renewable energy;
- Generation and integration of renewable energy;
- Energy storage technology;
- Key equipment for new-type power systems and technologies for controlling it.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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.
