Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, there has been an intensive energy market transformation in the world. Renewable energy sources have an increasing share in global energy production. A fundamental problem in the case of sources such as solar and wind farms is the storage of the generated energy. Energy storage with a long life and the ability to quickly charge and discharge are sought after. The use of new types of energy storage is possible thanks to the intensive development of converter systems and power electronics. There are also forms of storage based on electronic components, such as capacitors and super-caps. This Special Issue covers new solutions in the field of inverters, converter systems, power electronics, energy storage integrated with power electronic systems, and new ways to extend the life of storage.

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.

This article explores the efficiency of photovoltaic (PV) panels, which is crucial in the search for sustainable energy solutions. The study presents a comprehensive analysis of the maximum solar potential achievable through photovoltaic technologies amidst the increasing global energy demands. The research examines solar radiation measurement techniques, the incidence angle of solar rays, and the intricacies of PV panel efficiency. It highlights the potential for improving the performance of solar-based energy systems. Four main sections are covered, beginning with an introduction to the importance of energy storage in sustainable energy production, especially in the context of the European Union’s energy goals and the Green Deal. The following sections discuss the precision needed in the geographical positioning of measurement systems, the impact of light physics, and variable weather conditions on energy capture. The last section presents a novel clock algorithm regulation system designed to enhance the efficiency of the measurement system. Full article
