Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

As renewable energy technologies swiftly advance, the benefits of a renewable energy system that enhances energy efficiency and reduces carbon emissions are becoming increasingly apparent. This system encompasses various technologies, including combined heat and power generation, high-voltage technology, nuclear power engineering, fuel cells, photovoltaic, wind turbines, and diverse energy storage. Additionally, the cooperation between the power market and the carbon market stands out as an effective mechanism for promoting the application of new technologies. It assigns a monetary value to energy production and carbon emissions. These elements are all crucial for shaping the future of renewable energy systems.

This Special Issue on “Modeling, Operation and Control in Renewable Energy Systems” will curate novel advances in research that either use optimization and control theory as essential tools to design renewable energy systems or construct effective electricity markets and carbon markets for pricing energy and CO2. Topics include, but are not limited to, methods and applications in the following areas:

  1. Stability analysis and control in power system;
  2. Renewable integrated energy system;
  3. PV/wind turbine application technologies;
  4. Electricity/carbon markets;
  5. Carbon capture, utilization and storage;
  6. Fuel cell systems;
  7. High-voltage technologies.

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.

The development of efficient dyes for photon harvesting in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) is a critical area of research with the potential to enhance renewable energy technologies. This manuscript presents a novel approach to engineering dye structures (abbreviated as D2 dye features, an anthanthrene core with a resonance energy of ER = 694 kJ/mol and a reported power conversion efficiency (η) of 5.27%) by systematically replacing an anthanthrene core with various aromatic cores, aiming to understand the influence of resonance energy on molecular performance. By designing seven new dyes with resonance energies ranging from 255 to 529 kJ/mol, we conducted in-depth computational studies using Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (TDDFT) to explore the effects of π-aromatic linkers on their electronic properties. Our findings reveal key insights into intermolecular charge-transfer (ICT) mechanisms and how they relate to the resonance energy of dye cores, highlighting the significance of balanced charge mobilities in optimizing optoelectronic characteristics, as shown by the D9 dye with a naphthacene core.

The spinning reserve demand in high renewable penetration power systems is increasing significantly due to the stochastic and unpredictable nature of renewable power. This paper defines the expected load not supplied ratio (ELNSR) and models uncertainty factors such as unit forced outage rates, load and wind power output prediction errors based on probability density functions. It derives a quantitative relationship between system operating reserves and the ELNSR and uses this quantitative relationship as a constraint for power generation scheduling. Based on this, a coordinated generation and reserve scheduling model for power systems with large-scale wind power is established. Case study results demonstrate that the proposed model can balance both economy and reliability, coordinate the output allocation between wind power and thermal power, and provide an optimized allocation scheme for operating reserves among thermal power units to meet corresponding reliability requirements.
