Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is dedicated to the study and integration of emerging technologies, including power electronics, triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs), sensors, and artificial intelligence (AI), into the Internet of Things (IoT) and power grids. First, the challenges and opportunities of sensor networks in practical applications (such as human care) are discussed. Second, it aims to explore how these innovative technologies can enhance various aspects of the power grid, such as economic efficiency, security controls, and privacy protection. Submissions are invited that discuss the performance and practical applications of TENGs in grid environments.
Detailed surveys and research papers on theoretical and experimental developments are welcome. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Integration of new energy sources into the power grid;
- Power electronics (SiC, GaN, Si, etc.);
- Material, design, fabrication, integration, and reliability of power systems;
- Emergency power support using TENGs in the power grid;
- Self-powered sensing for human care;
- Storage and computing systems in sensors;
- The role of artificial intelligence (AI) in grid management;
- AI applications in power distribution and optimization;
- AI-driven security and privacy protection in the power grid.

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.
