The New electric power system (NEPS), which envisions a significant increase in the penetration of renewable energy sources and promoting the co-optimization of large unconventional power generators, will enable secure integration of renewable energy without sacrificing power quality. However, most power systems are built and developed based on the traditional concept of "generation after consumption." To build a NEPS with new energy as the main component, it is necessary to accommodate the intermittency of renewable generation, which requires the power grid to be able to take advantage of flexibility on both the transmission and distribution sides.
Therefore, smart approaches to generation and demand management are needed to manage the low-carbon transformation of power delivery and supply to maximize the cost-effectiveness of generation resources, which guarantees that the carbon emission milestones in the power industry can be achieved.
This research topic addresses all aspects of advanced techniques, methods, and systems for NEPSs. We welcome high-quality original and review articles on recent advances and potential research applications in relevant areas with a particular interest in NEPS management, monitoring, modeling, control, and optimization.
