Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid development of renewable energy and the increasing demand for efficient energy management have highlighted the critical role of electromechanical energy storage. These systems, including flywheels, pumped hydro storage, and electromechanical batteries, are essential for stabilizing power grids, enhancing energy efficiency, and supporting the transition to a sustainable energy future. However, their performance, reliability, and safety heavily depend on advanced protection and control technologies. This Special Issue aims to explore cutting-edge research and innovations in the protection and control of power conversion systems integrating electromechanical energy storage. Topics of interest include but are not limited to fault detection and diagnosis, real-time monitoring, advanced control strategies, cybersecurity, and integration with smart grids. We welcome original research articles, reviews, and case studies that address the challenges and opportunities in this field, contributing to the development of robust and intelligent 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 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. Machines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
