Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The increasing deployment of wind energy systems plays a pivotal role in transitioning to a sustainable and renewable energy future. As one of the most mature renewable energy technologies, wind power has achieved significant growth globally. However, integrating large-scale wind energy into existing power systems presents unique challenges. These include the variability and intermittency of wind resources, their impact on grid stability, and the need for efficient planning, control, and operation strategies. Emerging technologies like artificial intelligence, big data analytics, and high-fidelity modeling are increasingly applied to optimize wind farm design, improve grid stability, and enhance overall system performance. In this context, there is a pressing need for advanced research to tackle the technical, economic, and operational challenges associated with the integration of wind energy into modern power systems.
This Special Issue aims to advance the understanding and practical application of wind energy integration into power generation systems. It focuses on addressing key challenges and exploring innovative solutions that enhance the efficiency, reliability, and economic viability of wind energy systems.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- High-fidelity modeling and simulation of wind energy systems;
- Optimization algorithms for wind farm planning and design;
- Grid stability and control in wind-integrated power systems;
- Economic assessments of wind energy integration;
- Intelligent forecasting and data-driven operations in wind energy;
- Hybrid energy systems combining wind and other renewables;
- Resilience and reliability in wind 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. 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.
