Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Energy production from zero carbon emission sources is the leading solution towards the decarbonization of the society and the security of energy supply, as indicated by the respective European policy at the Energy Union level. This is a technical, but also a policy challenge. On the technical level, issues of renewables intermittency and the constraints for the connection of electric vehicles should be effectively addressed. Energy storage could substantially contribute in this direction. On the policy level, more efficient operation of the market is required to accommodate flexible demand and electric vehicle charging and discharging.
Having mentioned the above, it is of paramount importance to create sustainable design solutions, which shall benefit from the advanced simulation tools available to the research community. This will enhance the operation of the electricity distribution system per se, to the degree that it will become more sustainable.
Potential topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Power system analysis/dynamics for facilitating the connection of electric vehicles and storage devices;
- Modeling the impact of large-scale penetration of EV on electricity networks;
- Microgrid systems analysis;
- Smart control of electric vehicles and storage devices;
- Analysis of the integration of electric vehicles and storage devices to the electricity grid on market level;
- Electromobility (E-Mobility) as an enabler for meeting emission requirements and market demands;
- Issues of optimization and innovative algorithms to meet the abovementioned challenges;
- Energy policy issues for electric vehicles and storage;
- EV market penetration and impacts on energy consumption;
- Markets and regulatory framework for electric vehicles and storage connected to the grid;
- Batteries for electric vehicles and grid storage applications; EV as a storage in the smart grid, vehicle-to-grid (V2G) applications, and their impact to demand response;
- Foresight and futuristic applications for the connection of electric vehicles and storage devices to the grid;
- Demonstration projects on EV infrastructure and storage system deployment.

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 System Innovation 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 1400 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.
