Advanced Topics in Electrical Power Engineering

Dear Colleagues,

It is my pleasure to invite you to submit a manuscript to the upcoming Special Issue of Energies entitled “Advanced Topics in Electrical Power Engineering”.

The purpose of this Special Issue is to publish a set of articles on all aspects of modeling, operation, control, and planning of power plants and power systems, including dynamic interactions between power plants and power systems, constraint and security control aspects, tools and methods for control system design and optimization, test and documentation, real-time simulation, and dispatching. To guaranty robust, secure, and optimum operation of future power systems, the development and application of tools and methods such as modern control theory, computational intelligence techniques, and modeling of uncertainties are also important aspects that will be addressed by this Special Issue.

Papers on the optimal control and management of small and large decentralized units based on renewable resources such as water, wind, sun, and biomass, the concepts of smart grid, virtual power plant, and cyber physical energy systems are also welcome in this Special Issue.

Energies readers and authors are encouraged to send their articles. The key criteria for manuscript acceptance will be novelty and contribution to the field of Power Engineering. Manuscripts with experimental implementation are also encouraged. I expect these articles to be widely read and highly influential within the field.

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. 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.
