Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, in response to the growth of the population and industrialization, there has been increasing attention on renewable energy sources, which are unlimited in nature and eco-friendly. In addition, these sources are expected to play a significant role in the future energy industry, becoming the main alternative to, and reaching the level of usage of, conventional fossil resources.
This Special Issue aims to present recent advances related to the theory and control of all categories of renewable energy sources.
Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Renewable energy systems;
- Back-to-back power converters;
- New efficient renewable energy technologies;
- Implementation of advanced control strategies;
- Multi-level power converters for renewable energy sources;
- Modelling, control, and nonlinear control of renewable energy sources;
- Fuzzy logic research;
- AI-learning-approach-based optimization and control of renewable energy sources;
- New control strategies for maximum power extraction;
- Adaptive power electronic control algorithms for the efficient operation of integrated renewable energy sources;
- Advanced and coordinated control of hybrid renewable energy systems;
- Artificial intelligence control;
- Optimal power flow control;
- Practical implementation of control techniques;
- Grid-forming power electronics systems and future grid code requirements;
- Sustainable energy;
- Strategies for hybrid renewable energy source control;
- Experimental validation and industrial applications of renewable energy source control strategies.

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-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.
