Climate Change and Sustainability: Intelligent Operation and Maintenance of New Energy Systems

Dear Colleagues,

With the advent of an era of large-scale penetration of new energy, the intelligent operation and maintenance of new energy systems, including solar, wind, biomass, and energy storage systems, is crucial and can result in significant benefits. This Special Issue aims to explore the methods and technologies underpinning the intelligent operation and maintenance of new energy systems, including performance evaluation, fault diagnosis, accident alarms, life extension, and recycling, so as to improve energy utilization and the revenue generated by power plants.

Intelligent operation and maintenance is the key to realizing the unattended or less manpower-intensive operation and maintenance and the long life of new energy systems, and is crucial for a new generation of power systems dominated by new energy. We believe that through cooperation and sharing we can jointly address the challenges of the new energy sector and provide more sustainable energy solutions on a global scale. Therefore, we are launching this Special Issue to bring together the wisdom and experience of scholars from across various fields to explore the cutting-edge research results in the field of intelligent operation and maintenance of new energy systems, and contribute to the green and low-carbon development of the energy sector.

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. Sustainability is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
