Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, entitled "Design, Modeling, and Optimization of Solar Energy Systems", explores the principles, methodologies, and tools necessary for developing efficient and sustainable solar energy solutions. The focus is on the integration of solar technologies in various applications, utilizing advanced modeling techniques to predict performance, and employing optimization strategies to enhance efficiency and cost effectiveness. This Special Issue welcomes publications highlighting the theoretical foundations of solar energy, practical design considerations, simulation methods, and the latest innovations in optimization algorithms and software for solar energy systems.
Our Special Issue will accept a broad range of new advances in the field of solar energy and related renewable sources of energy. The topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Solar energy system design;
- Fuel cells;
- Photovoltaic systems;
- Hybrid solar energy systems;
- Mathematical modeling of solar energy systems;
- Performance prediction models;
- Solar energy storage;
- Efficiency enhancement techniques;
- Optimization, performance, and sustainability;
- Real-world applications.

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. Processes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
