Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, the use of fossil energy has led to various environmental problems around the world, thus further promoting the rapid development of renewable energy in the world. Not only can the development of renewable energy improve these environmental problems, but the production cost is also significantly reduced. Wind power, photovoltaic power, and hydroelectric power, which are important components of renewable energy, can be developed as viable options for future power generation. However, the development of new energy power generation systems makes the control of hybrid power generation systems consisting of multiple new energy sources, the control between renewable energy and grid-connected hybrid energy storage, and the complex energy management control of distributed power generation systems very challenging. Therefore, a new generation of advanced process control strategies is expected to improve the stability and sustainability of hybrid power generation systems, and new energy management schemes are needed for grid-connected hybrid energy storage in different modes to improve the power quality characteristics in the AC grid. This Special Issue aims to promote the development and research of control strategies and simulation techniques for new energy power generation systems so that the stability of these systems and the power quality of AC grids can be improved.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Nonlinear modeling and simulation of new energy power generation systems;
- Nonlinear modeling and simulation of energy storage systems;
- Controller of hybrid power generation/energy storage systems;
- Energy management and control;
- Distributed control;
- Control of grid-connected hybrid energy storage systems;
- Effective power management;
- Active/reactive power control of new energy power generation systems;
- Physical simulation system of new energy power generation systems;
- Distributed generating units;
- Real-time digital simulation platforms;
- Hybrid photovoltaic and wind power generation systems;
- Real-time system state assessment;
- New energy power generation forecasts;
- Prediction, control, and scheduling of pumped storage units.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Sustainability is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
