Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Guest Editor is inviting submissions to a Special Issue of Energies on the subject area of “New Insights into Design, Control and Application of Modular Multilevel Converters”. The smart and efficient use of energy systems is not only a compelling challenge, but also a requirement. Nowadays, multilevel power electronic converters play a key role in ensuring the success of power and energy applications. This Special Issue is intended for existing and emerging control techniques applied to multilevel converters used on power systems, distribution systems and renewable energy generation systems, including many interesting topics for power and energy researchers.
This Special Issue will focus on new control methods and applications for power and energy generation and storage systems. Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to:
- Power electronics;
- Control methods of power electronics;
- Scalar and vector control;
- Multilevel converters topologies and control;
- Hybrid topologies or mixed semiconductors;
- Three-phase and five-phase motor control;
- Fault tolerant converters;
- Development using RCP/HIL/PHIL systems;
- Grid connected power systems;
- PV, wind and ocean wave energy systems;
- Battery energy storage systems;
- FACTS and HVDC;
- Distributed generation;
- Variable speed drives;
- Electric vehicles;
- Battery changing systems;
- Ride-through capability;
- Utility-scale and industrial 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. 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
