Advanced Modeling, Control and Applications for Sustainable Power–Energy Systems
This special issue belongs to the section "Process Control, Modeling and Optimization".
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Modern power–energy systems are undergoing a fundamental transformation. The growing penetration of renewable generation, energy storage, electric mobility, and green hydrogen is pushing conventional grids toward decentralized, cyber–physical architectures. These changes bring new challenges—intermittency, uncertainty, nonlinear dynamics, bidirectional power flows, and multi-energy coupling—that traditional modeling and control methods cannot fully address.
This Special Issue entitled “Advanced Modeling, Control and Applications for Sustainable Power–Energy Systems” seeks original contributions on advanced modeling, intelligent control, and practical applications that support the secure, flexible, and sustainable operation of future power–energy systems.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Advanced mathematical modeling and dynamic simulation of power–energy systems;
- Digital twins for power systems, microgrids, renewable energy systems, and energy storage;
- Artificial intelligence and machine learning applications in energy systems;
- Model predictive control of energy systems, microgrids, and power converters;
- Distributed and hierarchical control of decentralized energy resources;
- Renewable energy forecasting and uncertainty quantification;
- Grid integration of photovoltaic and wind energy systems;
- Photovoltaic system modeling, optimization, and performance assessment;
- Energy management strategies for hybrid renewable energy systems;
- Decarbonization strategies and carbon-neutral power–energy systems;
- CO₂ capture technologies integrated with sustainable 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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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-anonymized 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 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 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.
