Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The large-scale integration of renewable energy sources achieved over recent years and associated with more ambitious targets being set with regard to the near future, especially concerning the electricity generation sector, calls for the introduction of flexibility means, led by energy storage. Both mature and emerging energy storage technologies may be identified in this context, with stationary storage gradually turning into a viable solution for the support of renewable energy across different sectors, scales and topologies. With this in mind, this Special Issue aims to present and disseminate the most recent advances related to design, modelling, operation, intelligent energy management, applications, economics and business models for similar systems, bringing together different types of stationary energy storage and renewable energies.
Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Large-scale energy storage dedicated to an increase in RES at grid-level;
- Community/prosumer-level stationary storage and RES;
- Virtual power plant applications;
- Front-of-the-meter and behind-the-meter stationary storage;
- Market-integrated RES and storage systems;
- Real-life applications, demonstration projects and pilot systems;
- Intelligent energy management of integrated storage and RES systems;
- Economics and novel business models for stationary storage in support of RES.

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.
