Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Renewable energy is rapidly developing and evolving in tandem with advances in electronic power systems. New topologies, novel control techniques, control algorithms, and emerging semiconductor technologies all represent essential topics in the renewable energy processing industry. Potential benefits in terms of cost, efficiency, simplicity, stability, robustness, and standardization are all key factors to consider with regard to energy systems.
In modern energy conversion, topologies and algorithms are critical, so we welcome the submission of papers presenting advances in these topics for this Special Issue.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Converter topologies for renewable energy processing;
- Communication technologies for energy resource management;
- Advanced control techniques;
- Control algorithms to provide stability and robustness in microgrids;
- The management of energy storage systems;
- The intelligent management of renewable energy resources, such as photovoltaics or wind.
