This issue features original research addressing key challenges in modern power and energy systems, with an emphasis on renewable energy integration, intelligent control strategies, and advanced optimization techniques. The contributions include a hybrid adaptive MPPT algorithm for enhanced photovoltaic system performance, techno-economic optimization of battery energy storage systems for peak shaving and voltage regulation, and an automated approach for transforming unstructured geospatial feeder data into analytical models. In addition, coordinated planning of distributed generation and DSTATCOM allocation with network reconfiguration is explored to improve distribution network performance.
