Celebrating Applied Sciences Reaching the 20,000 Article Milestone: Invited Papers in the Section Energy

Dear Colleague,

Electrifying the world is one of the pragmatic solutions for reducing carbon footprints. Electric transportation, renewable energy generation, electric storage systems, smart- and microgrid technologies, and digitalization are essential parts of a sustainable green society. Thus, modern energy systems are becoming more and more interconnected. This makes them vulnerable. Therefore, the reliable and secure planning and operation of modern energy systems require advanced and smart solutions.

This Special Issue aims to cover state-of-the-art methodologies, models and technical contributions for improving the reliability and performance of modern energy systems characterized by a high penetration of renewable energy sources, electric transportation, energy storage systems, smart homes and digitalization.  To celebrate the recent publication of Applied Sciences’ 20,000th paper and mark this special occasion together with our readers, the journal’s Editorial Board invites researchers in all the areas of interest covered by Energy to submit high-quality original research or review articles.
