Feature Papers in Industrial Electronics, 2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

The growing commitment of governments, businesses, and industries towards net zero has provided new opportunities and challenges for energy sectors. The key drivers for energy transition are electrifications, technological innovations, sector couplings, and the introduction of new market structures, e.g., renewable generators, energy storage systems, electric vehicles, and hydrogen fuel cells. There are several challenges regarding the energy transition, for example, energy mix and grid flexibility requirements, the need for an electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, a longer-term backup capacity, and managing the impacts of new technologies such as distributed generation, energy storage systems, and hydrogen fuel cells.

This Special Issue, a follow-up to its successful first edition, aims to address the emerging and broader issues for a reliable and sustainable operation of power and energy systems and to provide a platform to improve interdisciplinary research, through sharing the most recent ideas.

The topics of interest for the Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:

1. Demand response and demand-side management in green energy for sustainable power systems;
2. Modeling and management of EVs;
3. Green hydrogen technology and integrations with the power network;
4. Clean energy and recycling;
5. Cyber–physical systems and wide area monitoring;
6. Demand flexibility and minimum demand;
7. Electrifications of fossil fuel-dominated industries;
8. Power electronics applications in power and energy sectors;
9. Nonlinear and intelligent control techniques for smart grid;
10. Energy storage systems;
11. Artificial intelligence and energy;
12. New energy initiatives.

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-anonymized 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.
