Special Issue Information
Dear colleagues, greetings from the Special Issue Editors.
We are inviting submissions to a Special Issue of Energies Journal on the subject area of “Electrical Power and Energy Systems for Transportation Applications”. Electrical power and energy systems are at the forefront of application developments in, for example, more-electric and all-electric aircraft, electric and hybrid road vehicles and marine propulsion applications. The associated hardware, technologies and control methods are crucial to achieving critical global targets in energy efficiency, low-carbon and low-emissions operations. The greatest challenges occur when we combine new technologies at large-scale and often complex system levels.
Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to:
- Novel Electrical Power Systems architectures and technologies;
- Energy vectors, integration with renewables, power and energy dense machines, converters and energy storage;
- Air, land and sea vehicles; electrical propulsion and actuation for land, sea and air vehicles;
- Electrical Machines, Drives, Systems and Applications—AC and DC machines and drives;
- Multiscale systems modeling; remote monitoring and diagnosis;
- Power Electronic Systems—Converters and emerging technologies;
- Modeling simulation and control, reliability and fault tolerance, safety critical operation;
- Electrical Power Generation Systems—Modeling and simulation of electrical power systems;
- Load management; power quality; distribution reliability; distributed and islanded power systems, sensor networks, communication and control;
- Electrical Power Systems Modeling and Control—Modeling and control methodologies and applications;
- Intelligent systems; optimization and advanced heuristics; adaptive systems; robust control.

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). 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.
