Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With highly fluctuating prices of fossil fuels in global markets and amidst growing concerns about the environmental impact of carbon emissions, sources of energy have been making a steady shift towards renewable energy resources such as solar and wind. In the not-so-distant future, electrical power is expected to be generated entirely through such eco-friendly green resources, thereby eliminating the dependence on fossil fuels and realizing a zero-carbon footprint. The main aim of this Special Issue is to seek high-quality submissions that highlight innovative technologies and address recent breakthroughs in the areas of green energy and power systems.
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Solar and wind energy generation;
- Other forms of renewable energy resources such as hydro-power, bio-fuels, and geo-thermal energy;
- Energy storage and fuel cells;
- Electric transportation;
- Long-distance transmission of renewable power through HVDC;
- The integration of distributed energy resources with power distribution systems;
- Islanded and grid-connected microgrids;
- Fault analysis and protection coordination in renewable energy systems.
