Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrical power systems are currently confronting multiple challenges, including a high percentage of new energy, source–grid–load–storage coordination, and extreme climate events. Artificial intelligence (AI), as a key enabler to address these challenges, has demonstrated transformative potential across all segments of electrical power systems. With the rapid advancement of emerging AI technologies such as generative large language models (LLMs), federated learning, explainable AI (XAI), and embodied intelligence, large-scale applications will emerge across electrical power system domains, including planning and operation, stability control, asset management, safety and emergency response, etc. These innovations will further enhance the security, reliability, and cost-efficiency of electrical power system operations.
This Special Issue aims to present and disseminate the most recent advances related to the application of artificial intelligence in electrical power systems.
Topics of interest for this publication include, but are not limited to, the following:
- All aspects of AI algorithms and theories for power generation, transformation, distribution, and consumption domains;
- Ultra-short-term load forecasting methods;
- Renewable energy generation forecasting;
- Power system fault diagnosis and defense;
- Robotic intelligent grid inspection;
- Large-scale market clearing algorithms for electricity trading;
- Power supply–demand interaction mechanisms.

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.
