Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent decades, wind power generation has experienced a rapid increase, and the global installed wind power capacity is predicted to be up to 5806GW by 2050. The increasing penetration of wind power in electrical networks has presented various challenges and threats to the power grid. The aging of the deployed turbines has also increased the demand for operation optimization and intelligent maintenance of wind farms. Moreover, offshore wind turbines are faced with harsher and more uncertain environments, which require more research efforts on diagnosis and prognostics. Recently, the rise of intelligent technologies including machine learning, intelligent control, 5G tech, etc. has attracted attention from both the academic and industrial communities. Hence, the aim of this Special Issue is to critically address the challenges and issues concerned with wind energy and provide appropriate solutions to enhance wind power generation. Topics of interest for publication include but are not limited to the following:
- Grid integration of wind power.
- Wind power forecasting.
- Wind-energy-based hybrid systems.
- Information and communication technologies for wind power.
- Floating offshore wind power technologies.
- Energy storage systems for wind power integration.
- Intelligent control and optimization of wind turbines.
- Security of wind power generation.
- Wind-turbine wake.
- wind-farm optimization.

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.
