Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue explores the forefront of power electronics technology and its significant role in achieving net-zero goals. As the world gravitates towards sustainable energy solutions, integrating advanced power electronics has become critical to enhancing the efficiency, reliability, and flexibility of renewable power systems, electric vehicles, and smart grid technologies. This issue seeks to showcase innovative research, case studies, and reviews that address the latest developments, methodologies, and applications of power electronics in facilitating the transition to net-zero power systems. Contributions are invited from researchers, engineers, and industry professionals pushing the boundaries of power electronics to enable a sustainable, resilient, and carbon-neutral energy future. The aim is to provide a comprehensive platform for disseminating breakthroughs and trends in power electronics that support the global pursuit of net-zero objectives, offering insights into challenges, opportunities, and future directions in this critical field of research. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Design and control of high-efficiency converters and inverters for net-zero power systems;
- Grid forming and grid following converters;
- Optimization of power electronics for renewable energy harvesting, distribution, and consumption;
- MVDC, HVDC, and FACTS;
- Microgrids and smart grids;
- Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) and vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology;
- Grid auxiliary services enabled by power electronics.
