• Methods of power quality analysis. Modeling and simulation
• Power quality measurements: techniques, instruments
• Methods of power quality improvement: filters, power compensation, phase balancing, etc.
• Power quality in competitive electricity markets
• EMC in electrical engineering
• Economic aspects of power quality and cost of supply
• Sensitivity of loads and other electrical equipment to power quality characteristics
• Influences of disturbing loads on supply networks and other electrical devices
• Electrical and exploitative characteristics of loads and electrical power converters
• Reliability and continuity of supply
• Power quality in grids with distributed generation
• Smart grid solutions to improve power quality
• ICT solutions to improve power quality
• Power quality and power system flexibility
• Power system planning and power quality
• Standardization and regulation

Papers submitted as expanded contributions from the EPQU conference, they should fulfill the following requirements:

• The paper should be expanded by at least 50%, to the size of a research article (conference proceedings);
• The conference paper should be cited and noted on the first page of the paper;

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.
