Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The main goal of this Special Issue, "The Rise of Green Microgrids", is to receive manuscripts that introduce new techniques for the design of electrical microgrids whose primary source of energy comes from a non-conventional renewable source (wind, solar photovoltaic, fuel cells, etc.) with the purpose of reducing the greenhouse effect. Manuscripts including future trends in microgrid design and its implementation are also welcome. Manuscripts can consider isolated microgrids and grid-connected microgrids. The current variety of DC microgrids, AC microgrids, or a combination of DC and AC microgrids can be considered. Topics of interest for this Special Issue include but are not limited to the following:
- DC and AC microgrids;
- Microgrids in transportation systems;
- Microgrids in smart cities;
- Microgrids in smart buildings;
- Applications of Artificial Intelligence in microgrids;
- Applications of control theory and controller implementation in microgrids;
- Power electronics for microgrids;
- Communications for microgrids;
- Electrical protections for microgrids.

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.
