AI for Smart Grid Optimization—Technological Advances and Future Perspectives

Dear Colleagues,

To mark the growing significance of AI in advancing smart grid systems, we are launching a Special Issue entitled “AI for Smart Grid Optimization—Technological Advances and Future Perspectives”. This Special Issue will include high-quality papers on topics within the scope of AI applications in smart grids. We invite you to contribute an original research or comprehensive review article on a hot topic for peer review and possible publication.

In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. The scope of this Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:

• AI-driven power forecasting (short-term/long-term load prediction, renewable energy output forecasting, etc.);
• Intelligent power dispatch (real-time optimal dispatch, multi-energy system coordination, demand response optimization, etc.);
• Smart grid control (adaptive control strategies, fault diagnosis and self-healing, stability control, etc.);
• AI-aided grid planning (network expansion planning, distributed energy resource integration planning, infrastructure upgrading, etc.);
• Low-carbon monitoring and management (carbon emission tracking, energy efficiency optimization, green energy scheduling, etc.);
• Large model technologies in smart grids (foundation models for multi-source data fusion, scalable algorithms for grid-wide optimization, etc.).

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-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Technologies 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 1800 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.
