Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The demand for high-efficiency and high-power-density power supplies has grown exponentially in recent years, driven by advancements in renewable energy systems, electric vehicles, AI, aerospace, industrial automation, and portable electronics. These applications require power conversion systems that not only deliver superior efficiency but also meet stringent size, weight, and reliability constraints and fast dynamic performance. Achieving these goals necessitates innovative modeling techniques, advanced control strategies, and cutting-edge materials to optimize efficiency, thermal management, and power density.
This Special Issue aims to showcase the latest research and technological breakthroughs in the modeling and control of high-efficiency, high-power-density power supplies. We invite contributions that address theoretical, experimental, and practical challenges in this field, with a focus on novel topologies, control algorithms, and optimization methodologies. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Advanced large/small-signal modeling technique for power converters;
- Electromagnetic-thermal multiphysics modeling technique;
- Integrated magnetics technology for high-power-density applications;
- Advanced control strategies for ultrafast load transient response;
- High-frequency and wide-bandgap semiconductor-based power supplies;
- Innovative control strategies for improved efficiency;
- Thermal management and reliability enhancement in compact power systems;
- Integration of power supplies with energy storage and smart grids;
- Emerging trends in miniaturization and modular power conversion.
By bringing together researchers and practitioners, this Special Issue seeks to foster collaboration and disseminate knowledge that will drive the next generation of power supply technologies. We welcome original research articles, reviews, and case studies that align with the journal's scope of promoting sustainable and innovative energy solutions.

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.
