Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Energy storage systems in electrical grids are key technologies for achieving a sustainable energy supply. Recently, a variety of different storage technologies are being researched and developed to meet grid requirements, e.g., integration of renewable generators, integration of electromobility, load shifting, and ancillary services. Grid applications differ in terms of their requirements, e.g., for dynamics, frequency, and predictability. For these applications, an energy storage system must be optimally sized and operated to reach high lifetimes. Thus, not every energy storage system is suitable for all grid applications.
This Special Issue on “Application of Energy Storage Systems in Smart Grids” seeks high-quality works focusing on the latest novel advances in energy storage system applications, while electrochemical, chemical, mechanical, electrical, and thermal energy storage for smart grid is also of interest. Topics include but are not limited to:
- Energy storage systems for highly dynamic applications;
- Optimal sizing and operation of storage systems for applications;
- Multi-use application of energy storage system;
- Second-use concepts;
- Hybrid energy storage systems;
- Engineering, control, and optimization of energy storage systems;
- Placement of energy storage systems in the power system;
- Economic, policy, and market introduction concepts of energy storage systems.

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. Processes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
