Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In recent decades, power systems have faced numerous challenges due to the rise in representative renewable and non-centralized power generation, which has changed our prior consolidated understanding of power systems as being primarily based on synchronous generation. The new system configuration, with an increase in decentralized inverter-based generation, could enable the application of smart grids. The ways in which the insertion of power electronics into a power system contributes to, or compromises, power system stability will be a key focus in this Special Issue. This challenge is being addressed by both power systems and power electronics researchers. Thus, contributions from the latter perspective are also welcome. Topics can include, but are not limited to, the following:

  1. Dynamic security of the power system;
  2. Smart grids;
  3. Grid following and grid forming;
  4. Virtual inertia;
  5. Ancillary services.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue

  • Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
  • Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
  • Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
  • External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
  • e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
