Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to explore the growing interest in the analysis and nonlinear control of complex systems involving power systems. This topic covers both classical area power generation with classical nonlinear characterization of various subsystems from power generation and transmission to power load, and, in particular, the interconnections between systems. Does emergent behavior occur? Do large-scale systems involve more complex analysis and parameter bifurcation studies? These questions will comprise the main topics discussed in the issue. Moreover, power systems must consider the integration of green energy networks with classical electrical power plants. This could become a possibility due to recent power electronics components proposed in the market. This involves investigating all the equipment that allows us to improve the quality of the systems and their reliability. Indeed, in power systems today, there is significant interest in battery modeling and control. This aspect is related to electrical drivers for and electrical motion control equipment.
In summary, the following areas will be covered by this SI:
- Nonlinear control of complex power systems;
- New electromechanical control aspects of high-performance generators for alternative generators;
- Nonlinear microsystem generators in energy harvesting;
- Electronic power devices for the control of power apparatus;
- Model and control of power batteries.
We encourage authors to contribute a range of papers in the area of fusion energy apparatus. Future energy will also be addressed in these systems, as shown by advanced laboratories like ITER.

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 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
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).
