Special Issue Information
Dear colleagues,
Sustainable Energy Systems from Multiple Sourses: a Perspective on Design, Techno-Economic Evaluation and Optimization Approaches is a continuation of the previous Special Issue, Optimal Design and Operation of Sustainable Energy Systems’. This Special Issue focuses on the technological advancement of clean and reliable energy systems for both on and off-grid applications. In recent times, renewable energy technologies, such as wind, solar, and lately, hydrokinetic energy, have increased in both installation capacity and application. The intermittent nature of these sources still poses a challenge due to their overdependence on climatic conditions.
In addition, the use of electric vehicles (EVs) is gaining momentum. If not properly managed, the uncoordinated charging of these EVs will contribute to random loads, leading to a negative impact on the operation of the existing network.
Hence, it is imperative that the design, sizing, and optimization approaches in developing such systems are made meticulously in order to improve system reliability and efficiency.
Furthermore, the technical feasibility and economic viability of such a system need to be comprehensively evaluated for implementation, whether for on or off-grid applications. Therefore, this Special Issue considers a wide variety of areas for energy supply systems from multiple sourses, which include:
- distributed energy resources;
- planning and operation of energy systems;
- standalone renewable energy systems;
- grid integration of renewable energies;
- techno-economic analysis of renewable energy-based systems;
- battery storage systems in microgrid application;
- load and renewable energy forecasting;
- lithium–ion battery and lead acid battery modeling;
- complex hybrid energy systems;
- optimal design and operation;
- smart metering and power quality;
- active and reactive power pricing;
- demand side management;
- optimization under uncertainty;
- electric vehicle.

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.
