Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on the broad area of design for optimization of power electronic converters (AC/DC, DC/DC, DC/AC, and AC/AC), with special interest in optimization for efficiency, reliability, cost, and/or performance by design. The following is a list of recommended topics:
- Model-based converter optimal design: efficiency modeling, reliability modeling, and cost modeling;
- High-efficiency design: high-efficiency component selection, maximum-efficiency control, and new efficient power electronic converters;
- Converter reliability enhancement: reconfiguration, fault tolerance, and redundancy;
- Design for reliability;
- Low-cost power electronics;
- Robust power electronics.

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.
