Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Modern power systems are increasingly dominated by power electronics, driven by the integration of renewable energy, distributed resources, and HVDC technology. While power electronics improve flexibility and efficiency, they fundamentally alter system dynamics, posing significant stability and security challenges. Their narrow operational range leads to weak grid characteristics, making traditional protection and control strategies less effective. Furthermore, control mode switching during transience introduces new stability risks, thus requiring new analysis and control methods.
This Special Issue focuses on advancing the modeling, analysis, protection, control, and resilience of power electronics-dominated systems to ensure their safe and stable operation.
Topics of Interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Modeling of power electronic devices.
- Modeling of power-electronics-dominated (PED) power systems.
- Operational characteristics of PED systems.
- Operation optimization of PED systems.
- Fault analysis of PED systems.
- Protection principles independent of source characteristics.
- Small-signal stability analysis of PED systems.
- Small-signal stability control strategies of PED systems.
- Large-disturbance stability analysis of PED systems.
- Transient stability control of PED systems.
- Resilience enhancement of PED systems under extreme events.

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. Energies 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 2600 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.
