Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The integrated energy system (IES) facilitates the full consumption of renewable energy and provides an important means of improving the overall energy utilization efficiency of user-side energy systems. However, it still faces numerous unresolved challenges in relation to the theoretical modeling, system optimization, engineering construction, and policy support of IESs. On the one hand, the coupling between heterogeneous energy systems poses new challenges for the planning, operation, and modeling of multiple energy systems, increasing the dimension of system optimization. On the other hand, the feasibility of the collaborative operation of multiple energy systems not only involves technical challenges, but also other factors (such as economic entities and environmental benefits).
This Special Issue aims to present and disseminate advanced technologies and pilot studies based on IESs. It is also significant to suggest energy policies and evaluate the economic and environmental effect of IESs. We invite original high-quality submissions of research papers, case studies, and reviews across various topics related to energy engineering and its policies, including (but not limited to) the following:
- Renewable energy systems and technologies;
- Modeling, simulation, and optimization of energy systems;
- Planning and dispatching of micro-grids;
- Smart grids and energy management;
- Energy Storage and conversion systems;
- Energy efficiency and conservation;
- Energy policy, economics, and planning;
- Energy and environmental sustainability;
- Strategy and evaluation of electrification.

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.
