Dear Colleagues,

We invite you to contribute to this Special Issue with your latest research on microgrids for e-mobility.

Pollution reduction is one of the biggest challenges of this century, since the energy growing demand affects the increase of the use of petroleum and carbon fossil fuel. A socially widespread prosperity is sustainable only by reducing the energy waste or by increasing the efficiency of each link of the supply chain from production to the user. In recent years, microgrids have been considered as the solution for e-mobility and also for civil energy production, since they allow optimizing the power density and efficiency of electrical devices, thus limiting their peak power and consequently optimizing their storage use. Several commercial realizations confirm that the field covers both the interests of the research community and the industry. The scope of the proposed Special Issue is to define the state-of-the-art for e-mobility microgrids, in order to give to readers the opportunity to select the best solution for their own applications.

This Special Issue invites original papers on but not limited to:

1) Microgrid and subsystem modeling;

2) Hardware in the loop methods with physical validation and tests;

3) Electrical generators, motor and drive design and testing;

4) Power electronic converter modeling and testing;

5) Energy management strategies and techniques;

6) Microgrid reliability and availability;

7) Fault detection.

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.
