Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are delighted to announce this call for papers for a Special Issue in Energies (IF 3.0).
With the increasing power demand and energy transition to a sustainable and decarbonized society, research activities and adoption of smart electric power systems have been brought to the fore.
The aim of this Special Issue, Advances in Research and Practice of Smart Electric Power Systems: 2nd Edition is to publish studies that reveal a wide range of real-world applications for hardware and software technologies in complex and data-driven power systems with distributed energy resources. This Special Issue aims to foster an extensive exchange of insights between the fields of energy production, transportation, end-uses, and utilization for pollution reduction and energy savings, thereby targeting carbon-neutral energy systems and green energy economies. Original research papers as well as review articles dealing with the most recent developments and innovations for the implementation of robust and flexible power and energy networks are also welcome.
Specific topics of interest include, but are not restricted to, the following:
- Computing and communication technologies for smart grids;
- Hardware and software approaches for smart/intelligent power systems;
- Power grid planning and operations techniques for flexibility and resilience;
- Energy efficiency improvement facilities for sustainable energy development;
- Digital technology applications and services in the energy sector.
