Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With increasing regulatory ambition (e.g., EU green deal) and voluntary (e.g., corporate) commitments for decarbonization, sustainability and low-carbon energy transition have become a major worldwide priority.
Building a renewable-based green power system would be critical to achieving low-carbon energy transition, due to the rapidly increasing electrification taking place across sectors (such as EVs, industrial heat pumps and buildings electric boilers). Power will become the new fuel powering all demand sectors directly or indirectly (e.g., electrolysis-based hydrogen production).
Given this context, this work aims to investigate the ecosystem of new power systems to accommodate high penetration of renewables and integrate distributed energy resources from micro-grids, focusing on how to improve the reliability, efficiency and economics for such a system through optimizing and developing new power electronics solutions.
This Special Issue intends to seek high-quality submissions that present emerging applications and recent breakthroughs in power conversion systems and power generation. The topics covered in this Special Issue include but are not limited to:
- Advanced power conversion systems and power generation for renewable energies (e.g., solar, wind, and hydrogen);
- Advanced power conversion systems and power generation for electric vehicles;
- Advanced power conversion systems and power generation for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles;
- Advanced power conversion systems for energy storage systems (ESSs);
- Advanced power conversion systems for biomedical applications;
- Advanced power conversion systems for smart DC and AC distribution systems;
- Advanced power conversion systems for smart microgrids;
- Advanced power conversion systems for electrical drives;
- Advanced power conversion systems for lighting systems.

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.
