Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Energy management systems (EMSs) have become critical in modern power grids and industrial applications due to the increasing complexity of energy production, distribution, and consumption. As the world shifts toward sustainable energy solutions, the optimal design, control, and simulation of EMSs are paramount to ensuring efficiency, stability, and flexibility in managing diverse energy resources.
This Special Issue entitled “Optimal Design, Control and Simulation of Energy Management Systems” seeks to showcase cutting-edge research focused on the development and improvement of EMSs. The aim is to bring together the latest advances in the design, control algorithms, and simulation techniques that optimize energy use across various sectors, such as power grids, renewable energy integration, smart buildings, and industrial processes. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Optimal design and architecture of energy management systems;
- Advanced control strategies for real-time EMSs (e.g., model predictive control, adaptive control, multi-agent systems);
- Simulation techniques for EMS performance analysis under different operating conditions;
- Integration of renewable energy sources (e.g., wind, solar) into EMSs;
- Demand response and load forecasting for efficient energy utilization;
- Battery storage and energy storage system optimization in EMSs;
- Distributed energy resource (DER) management and coordination;
- Cybersecurity and fault tolerance in EMSs;
- Case studies and applications of EMSs in power grids, industrial plants, and smart homes.

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. Processes 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.
