Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Globally, countries are committed to facilitating the energy transition in order to achieve a more secure, cost-effective, low-carbon, and sustainable future. The power sector is leading the ongoing energy transition, driven by the rapid decline in renewable electricity costs, particularly for wind and solar generation. However, the rapid deployment of renewable energy has been causing various serious issues, such as renewable energy curtailment, unstable electricity grids, and blackouts. Therefore, the development of advanced wind and solar power generation technology is still essential to increase the grid flexibility and increase the share of renewable energy in the energy matrix. Therefore, advanced wind and solar power generation technology is required to increase the grid flexibility and increase the share of renewable energy in the energy matrix. In particular, the renewable-energy-based sector-coupling solution is one of the critical technologies that can reduce both curtailment and network congestion by smartly shifting the load.
This Special Issue focuses on state-of-the-art wind and solar power generation technologies and sector-coupling solutions for use in renewable energy curtailment. The scope of this Special Issue will include (but will not be limited to) the following aspects:
- Advanced wind and solar energy technology and O&M;
- Sector-coupling solutions such as power-to-gas (P2G), power-to-heat (P2H), power-to-mobility (P2M), and other energy transformation techniques (P2X);
- Energy storage systems (ESS) and energy management systems (EMS);
- Zero-energy building technology;
- AI-based renewable energy systems;
- Thermal energy storage and thermal management;
- Li-ion batteries and solid-state batteries;
- Advanced renewable energy technology;
- Electric vehicles and sustainable transportation systems.

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.
