Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrical systems are central in the energy transition from fossil fuels to renewables. Toward this end, it is essential that final prosumers can collectively cooperate in the management of distributed energy resources (DERs) to share energy and assets. Distributed resources in an energy community can be geographically near, sharing a smart microgrid conceived as a set of renewable energy sources (RESs), loads, energy storage systems (ESSs), and electric vehicles (EVs).
In this scenario, data-driven modeling techniques play a crucial role based on the machine learning paradigm and, more generally, computational intelligence in synergy with ICT technologies that help share information across complex infrastructures. Many control, decision, and optimization problems for electrical systems should be handled with real-time constraints while involving a large amount of data in complex operation frameworks. Consequently, such tasks should be solved using distributed learning techniques, as they cannot be handled by a centralized authority (i.e., for privacy concerns, networking reliability, etc.), nor can they be carried out efficiently by human operators.
This Special Issue is intended to bring forth advances in the use of computational intelligence tools (shallow and deep neural networks, fuzzy systems, evolutionary computation, etc.) in connection with statistical machine learning and signal processing techniques to solve real-world problems related to electrical systems. Special attention should be paid to the distributed contexts of smart grid, RES, ESS, and EV infrastructures, as well as to the energy/power aspects in ICT technologies and the related applications as, for instance, hungry data centers, green computing and green networking, EMC/EMI, energy harvesting, low-power micro/nano/optoelectronic systems, and so forth. Strategic tasks are pattern analysis, data regression and classification, optimization and control, decision-making, and time series forecasting.

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.
