Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapidly increased integration of renewable energy into the modern power grid is of great significance in the sustainable development and utilization of energy. Power electronics play a significant role in the integration of renewable energy to power grid, realizing efficient electrical energy generation, conversion, flexible regulation, and utilization. However, the inherent characteristics of low inertia and rapidity of power electronic devices gradually change the system response behavior of the traditional power grid dominated by synchronous machines. Therefore, starting from the functions and control modes of different types of power electronic equipment, conducting in-depth research on the advanced operation and control technology of power systems with large-scale renewable energy integration is the key to implementing the clean energy transition and constructing modern smart grids. This Special Issue focuses on the development of power electronics and applications in smart grids to promote the grid connection of renewable energy and improve the flexible regulation ability of the smart grid. Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to:
- Developments and key technologies of power electronic equipment;
- Operation analysis and control of flexible DC transmission and distribution systems;
- Active support control of renewable energy integrated power systems;
- Operation analysis and control of AC-DC microgrids;
- DC networking and control technology for offshore wind power;
- Advanced control of electrical energy storages in microgrids.

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. Electronics 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.
