Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In order to promote energy composition, wind power and photovoltaic power supplies will continue to be connected to the distribution network. This will give the modern distribution network more modern characteristics; however, new energy generation is intermittent and random, and needs to be connected to the grid using power electronic equipment, resulting in profound changes in the structure, form, operation mode, dynamic behavior, and fault characteristics of the distribution system. Therefore, the modeling analysis, comprehensive planning, optimized operation, control and protection, market operation, safety, and reliability of future distribution networks bring great challenges. In order to present the latest research progress and development trends in the above fields, as well as share the latest academic achievements in relation to the theory, methods, technology, and applications of these areas, this Special Issue, ‘Advances in Power Distribution Systems: 2nd Edition’, will be published in the Energies journal.
Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Active power distribution network modeling and simulation;
- New topology of power distribution networks;
- Fault protection and self-healing methods;
- Broad-frequency oscillation suppression;
- Flexible interconnection technology;
- Stability control strategies;
- Optimizations of scheduling technology;
- Distributed power generation and microgrid technology;
- Applications of AI in new power distribution systems;
- Power quality analysis and control;
- New building energy systems;
- Source charge interaction technology;
- Communication technology of distribution networks.

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. Energies 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 2600 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.
