Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to share the success of our Special Issue “Advances in Sustainable Power and Energy Systems”. Seven papers have been successfully published in our Special Issue, and you can find more detailed information at the following link: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/energies/special_issues/YR9UA6QVQ7.
We are now preparing to launch the second edition and are pleased to invite you to submit papers to Energies for a Special Issue devoted to “Advances in Sustainable Power and Energy Systems: 2nd Edition”
The importance of artificial intelligence (AI) in the energy sector cannot be overstated, as it has come to play a key role in addressing pressing challenges and unlocking significant opportunities for the industry, including the use of sophisticated computational algorithms and methodologies to optimize various aspects of energy production, distribution, consumption, and management. In this regard, artificial intelligence-based tools such as machine learning, neural networks, and optimization techniques are used to analyze big datasets from energy systems, including power plants, smart grids, and renewable energy production, to make informed decisions and improve operational efficiency. Integrating AI into the energy industry improves energy systems’ reliability and stability while minimizing costs and environmental impact. By harnessing the power of artificial intelligence, energy companies can overcome challenges, adapt to changing market dynamics, and contribute to a more sustainable and resilient energy future.
This Special Issue aims to showcase the most recent advances in the application of different artificial intelligence techniques to the control and optimization of smart grids that employ alternative and renewable energy sources and the development smart grid structures that dynamically adapt to changing supply and demand dynamics, improving the overall system resilience and stability.
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Grid management systems based on artificial intelligence;
- Energy distribution network optimization by adapting to changing demand and integrating different energy sources;
- Using AI to smooth the integration of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, into the grid by predicting weather conditions and adjusting energy production accordingly;
- AI for energy efficiency and demand management;
- AI-based innovations in the energy sector;
- AI-based energy management systems;
- AI for data-driven decision-making by analyzing massive datasets from sensors, meters, and other sources in real time;
- Using AI to improve asset management and the predictive maintenance of energy infrastructure.

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.
