Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The design and implementation of reliable, secure, and stable grid control systems have become more challenging with ever-increasing penetration of inverter-connected resources, e.g., solar and wind energy storage, as well as the potential for malicious/inadvertent cybersecurity threats. Likewise, there have also been recent advances in measurement technologies, high-speed reliable data networks, and advanced control methodologies that can enable the design of more robust, resilient control systems.
In this context, “Recent Advances in Electric Grid Control”, is a Special Issue of Energies that will publish original papers about the design, architectures, algorithms, simulation, and implementation of control systems for power grid applications at all levels including transmission, distribution, and microgrids. These papers should address state-of-the-art research and developments, as well as future trends in electric grid control. Papers that address (but are not limited to) the following topics are invited:
- Application of wide-area measurement technologies in grid control system development;
- Control system applications for small signal stability;
- Control system applications for sub-synchronous stability;
- Control system applications for transient stability;
- Control system applications for voltage stability;
- Control system design and implementation on the demand side of the grid;
- Control system design in power grids using network acquired measurement data;
- Control system design strategies for grids with high penetration of renewable energy;
- Control system design to enhance power grid resilience;
- Control system development for distribution systems and microgrids;
- Incorporation of cybersecurity in power grid control system design;
- Optimization-based control strategies in power systems;
- Power system modeling and simulation applied to control system development process;
- Real-time control system design and implementation;
- Robust control techniques applied to power 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 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.
