Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The aim of this Special Issue is to explore and present the latest advancements in power electronics within the context of renewable energy and power systems. It intends to bridge the gap between research and practical applications, facilitating the development and integration of more efficient and sustainable power electronics technologies.

The scope of this Special Issue is broad. It encompasses all aspects related to power electronics in the renewable energy and power systems fields. This includes power conversion technologies for solar, wind, hydro, and other renewable energy sources. It also delves into the design, control, and optimization of power electronic devices and systems for grid connection, energy storage, and power quality improvement.

This Special Issue will focus on (but is not limited to) the following topics:

  • Advanced power converter topologies for high-efficiency energy conversion from renewable sources. For example, new inverter designs for photovoltaic systems.
  • Control strategies for power electronics in distributed power generation systems to ensure stable and reliable operation.
  • The integration of power electronics in energy storage systems such as batteries and supercapacitors for better energy management.
  • Power quality issues and solutions related to power electronics in power systems, like harmonic reduction and reactive power compensation.
