Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue covers selected topics on the combination of machine learning with research on sustainable energy.
Energy systems are transforming worldwide to mitigate carbon emissions and global warming. Machine learning, which is an ideal companion to renewable energy, can facilitate the process of energy sector transformation. Because the major sources of renewable energy, wind and solar, are in their very nature, variable, it is a challenging task for a modern society to depend on these sources. Therefore, there is a growing need for novel concepts enabling their efficient and reliable integration into energy systems. Machine learning can help in various ways by providing accurate predictions of future generation and demand, using optimal control to increase the utilization of renewable energy sources, or monitoring the state of the system.
We invite all colleagues to submit an original manuscript with novel research results on this general topic, including, but not limited to, applications of machine learning related to energy system analysis; renewable energy and renewable energy systems; the energy transition; weather data modeling; forecasting of relevant quantities, such as generation, demand, or electricity prices; demand-side management; peer-to-peer energy trading; use of big data in energy research; and other issues relevant to sustainable energy.

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. Sustainability 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 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.
