Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to provide an international platform for researchers, engineers, and industry experts to present the latest advances, innovative methodologies, and practical applications in the fields of high-voltage engineering and insulation technologies. Both fundamental research and applied studies are welcome, including theoretical analyses, experimental investigations, numerical simulations, diagnostic techniques, and industrial case studies.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, insulation materials and aging mechanisms, partial discharge phenomena, condition monitoring and fault diagnosis, high-voltage testing and measurement, HVDC and UHV technologies, intelligent sensing systems, eco-friendly insulating media, electromagnetic field analysis, insulation coordination, and advanced applications of artificial intelligence and machine learning in high-voltage systems. Through this Special Issue, we hope to promote interdisciplinary collaboration and encourage the development of next-generation high-voltage and insulation technologies for sustainable and resilient energy systems.

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 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-anonymized 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.
