Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The need for resilient and secure communication solutions in the design, monitoring, and development of energy systems is paramount to ensure the smooth operation, reliability, and protection of critical infrastructure. Resilient communication solutions provide robust connectivity and enable seamless data exchange between various components of the energy system, including power plants, substations, smart meters, and control centers. This facilitates real-time monitoring, control, and coordination, ensuring efficient energy management and response to dynamic conditions. Secure communication solutions, on the other hand, protect against cyber threats, unauthorized access, and data breaches. Encryption, authentication protocols, and firewalls help safeguard the integrity and confidentiality of communication channels, preventing unauthorized manipulation or interception of sensitive information. By implementing resilient and secure communication solutions, energy systems can enhance their resilience, maintain operational continuity, and effectively defend against emerging cybersecurity risks, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the entire energy infrastructure.
This Special Issue on “Design, Monitoring and Dynamic Model Development of Energy System” intends to present novel resilient and secure communication solutions for energy systems. Topics include but are not limited to:
- Dynamic models for integration of distributed energy systems;
- Monitoring and control of distributed energy systems;
- Cybersecurity solutions for distributed energy systems.
