Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Power grids are evolving into smart grids with complicated integrations of sustainable energy sources, networks, loads, and storage towards a decarbonized future of human beings. A smart grid refers to a power-supplying system composed of interconnected devices for supplying, transmitting, storing, or converting energy in or between different forms. Additionally, to realize the goal of ‘double carbon’, the mass access of sustainable energy becomes another significant feature of smart grids. A smart grid with a high penetration of sustainable energy is highly complex with multiple dynamic modes, which brings technical challenges to the operation of such a system. The platform technology, including the fundamental hardware and application software for system monitoring and control, underlies the smart grid to meet the energy demand of end-users in an economic, secure, and reliable manner, environmentally and friendly. The development and construction of smart grids that integrate sustainable energy urgently require further theoretical innovation, key technological breakthroughs, and engineering practice in planning, operation, and security technology.
To promote theoretical and practical study in the sustainable management of smart grids, the editorial board of Sustainability invites potential authors to submit articles for review and publication in this Special Issue of Sustainability on Smart Electricity Grid and Sustainable Power Systems.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Sustainability 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.
