Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The power converter is a key technology that has been increasingly utilized not only in traditional industrial applications, but also in numerous innovative areas such as electrical aircraft, electrical ships, electrical vehicles/trains, new energy power generation systems, and data center power delivery, among others. This has contributed to advances in the circuit topology, modeling methods, control systems, optimization design, and test tools associated with current power converters, which are characterized by high efficiency, high power density, and high reliability. Moreover, these mission-critical and safety-critical applications have advanced research in the domain of fault diagnosis and fault tolerance, leading to the development of more fault-tolerant power converters.
This Special Issue aims to present and disseminate recent advances related to the theory, design, modeling, control, optimization, and application of all types of power converters.
The scope of this Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:
All aspects of DC/DC, DC/AC, AC/AC and AC/DC power converters;
Power converters for electrified transportation (aircraft, trains, ships, vehicles, etc.);
Power converters for new energy power generation systems;
Novel applications of power converters (wireless charging system, pulse load system, etc.);
Advanced modeling methods for power converters;
New topology for high-performance power converters;
Advanced control and energy management strategies for power converter systems;
Optimal design for cost-effective power converters.

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.
