Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Topic is a continuation of the previous successful Topic “Solar and Wind Power and Energy Forecasting”.

The renewable-energy-based generation of electricity is currently experiencing rapid growth in electric grids. The intermittent input from renewable energy sources (RES), as a consequence, creates problems in balancing the energy supply and demand. Thus, forecasting of RES power generation is vital to help grid operators to better manage the electric balance between power demand and supply and to improve the penetration of distributed renewable energy sources and, in standalone hybrid systems, for the optimum size of all its components and to improve the reliability of the isolated systems.

This Topic on “Solar and Wind Power and Energy Forecasting, 2nd Edition” is intended to disseminate new promising methods and techniques to forecast the output power and energy of intermittent renewable energy sources.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.

MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:

  1. Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
  2. Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
  3. Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
  4. Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
  5. Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
