Advances in Power System Flexibility and Resilience

Dear Colleagues,

The evolving landscape of power systems underscores the increasing significance of research on flexibility and resilience, particularly as the global reliance on electricity grows. This is further emphasized by the integration of variable renewable energy sources and smart grid technologies into the power grid. Flexible power systems continue to demonstrate their capability to swiftly adapt to changes in demand and supply, ensuring efficient responses.

This Special Issue aims to showcase and disseminate the latest advancements in power system flexibility and resilience. Reliable power systems that provide continuous and sufficient power supply are inherent to this discourse, but we aim to provide a redefined perspective, exploring avenues that enhance adaptability and recovery.

Potential topics for publication include, but are not limited to:

• Advanced modeling and optimization techniques;
• Demand-side flexibility solutions;
• Electric vehicles and energy storage systems as contributors to flexibility and resilience;
• Analysis of energy policies shaping the power sector;
• Strategies for managing high levels of renewable energy integration;
• Market designs fostering power system flexibility and resilience;
• Development of metrics for quantifying flexibility and resilience;
• Optimal control techniques for dynamic power systems;
• Techniques for power system recovery and restoration.

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.
