Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
One of the most significant challenges to power systems around the world has been the rapid storage of energy and the size of the storage systems. These systems include batteries, supercapacitors, hydrogen energy storage systems, their combination, and other alternative storage systems. The large penetration of renewable energy resources into power transmission and distribution systems requires the use of energy-saving management systems in order to increase the efficiency of these systems.
In modern power systems, various design and control schemes are applied to these emerging technologies to enhance the operational flexibility of the storage capability of modern power systems. These technologies and problems come with some challenges and application problems in energy-saving and management systems.
The main aim of this Special Issue is to understand the problems of energy-saving management systems by exploring recent research and field results relating to power system design and analysis, smart grids and micro grids, renewable energy, and power electronics applications for distributed energy resources. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following areas:
- Integration and control schemes of energy-saving management systems;
- Advanced energy storage systems for power systems;
- Artificial intelligence and other novel control applications in energy storage systems;
- Design and analysis of active energy-saving systems;
- Hybrid energy storage systems such as hydrogen and supercapacitor energy storage;
- Power electronic applications for grid-connected distributed energy storage systems;
- Power electronic applications in AC/DC smart and micro grid storage applications;
- New trends and challenges in industrial energy-saving applications.

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).
