Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are delighted to inform you that, after the successful launch of the third edition of the Special Issue on “Advanced Technologies in Electrical and Electronic Engineering”, the fourth edition is now open for submissions.
The electrical power system can be regarded as a comprehensive symmetrical system of power generation and consumption. However, it now faces numerous unprecedented threats and challenges, including the urgent demand for low-carbon energy, the uncertainty of renewable power integration, severe natural disasters, and rising energy costs. In particular, the increasing penetration of distributed energy resources and power converters has intensified the issue of asymmetry in distribution networks.
To achieve an affordable, clean, safe, stable, and resilient power supply—and to address asymmetrical problems—several emerging technologies are being developed. These include, but are not limited to, the integrated energy system (IES), smart distribution network (SDN), multilevel high-power converter (MHPC), advanced power system protection technology (APSP), direct current transmission and distribution techonology (DCTD), panoramic situation awareness (PSA), and high-voltage insulation technology (HVI).
The planned Special Issue of Symmetry aims to highlight the importance of innovative ideas and cutting-edge research in these areas. We believe there are numerous opportunities for applying new techonologies to address the challenges faced by conventional electrical systems. We warmly invite scholars to submit their research articles contributing to this dynamic field.

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. Symmetry is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
