Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Power electronic converters are widely used in renewable power systems, electric vehicles, and energy storage systems, transiting the traditional grid system to integrated electronic and intelligent power systems, i.e., power electronic-based smart grids. Meanwhile, operating condition issues (e.g., renewable energy resources, various load missions, environment affection) and reliability issues (e.g., power device health management and system-level reliability) are challenging the safe operation of the power electronic-based smart grids. In contrast, the reliability-oriented techniques for the latest smart grid control are flexible and diverse, e.g., system-level energy management and converter-level operation optimization, affecting system reliability profoundly. Therefore, reliability-oriented management techniques for smart grids can be used to intelligently monitor, predict, and manage the health status, realizing the autonomous reliability optimization of the smart grid. This Special Issue will focus on optimal reliability-oriented techniques for improving power quality and system reliability through the reliability management of power electronic-based grids, which aims to safeguard and improve the reliability of the smart grid and lay the foundation for future reliable power electronic-based power grids.
