Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, with the rapid integration of renewable energy sources, energy storage systems, electric vehicles, and hybrid AC/DC networks, the role of power electronics as the backbone of modern power systems has become increasingly prominent. Power system-driven power electronics not only enable efficient energy conversion but also provide critical functionalities such as grid support, power quality improvement, and system resilience enhancement. To address the emerging challenges in this field, innovations in converter topologies, modulation techniques, and advanced control strategies are essential for achieving higher efficiency, greater power density, enhanced reliability, and cost competitiveness.
This Special Issue seeks to gather cutting-edge research and technological advancements in power electronics driven by power system applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Innovative converter topologies (e.g., AC–DC, DC–DC, DC–AC, and multiport converters) for high efficiency, high power density, and low cost, particularly with wide-bandgap semiconductor devices;
- Novel modulation and control schemes to ensure high power quality, system robustness, and fast dynamic responses;
- Advanced fault diagnosis, fault-tolerant operation, and self-healing control for power converters in grid-connected and standalone systems;
- Coordinated control and stability analysis of power electronics in hybrid AC/DC systems, microgrids, and distributed energy resources;
- Techniques for soft-start, black start, and hot-swap operations in high-power applications;
- Power converter design considering system-level interactions, including grid support and ancillary services.

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.
