Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The energy transition requires the widespread use of power conditioning systems that are capable of managing renewable energy sources, energy storage systems, fuel cells, electrolysis, electric vehicle charging stations and AC or DC microgrids. In this context, the utilization of devices with DC inputs or outputs that have significant variations in their electrical quantities requires the implementation of DC/DC power conditioning systems that can achieve their conversion targets with enhanced efficiency, performance, dynamic response, reliability, robustness, and resilience. This topic is garnering significant interest in the scientific community due to its relevance in future energy scenarios.
This Special Issue aims to present and disseminate the most recent advances related to the theory, design, modelling, application and control of DC-DC Converters.
Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Wide input range DC-DC converters;
- New topology of DC-DC converters;
- Multi-active bridge;
- Dual active bridge;
- DC-DC partial power converter;
- Design of DC-DC converters;
- Control strategy for current and power management of DC-DC Converters;
- Special applications of DC-DC Converters;
- DC/DC Converters for renewable energy sources;
- DC/DC Converters for supplying electrolyzer.

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. Energies 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 2600 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.
