Dear colleagues,

Recently, wind power has become an interesting form of renewable sources and it is considered as one of the most efficient and available in a large portion of time. One of the mainly common uses of wind energy conversion systems is wind turbines (WT). Thus, advancements in wind turbine technology have made wind energy increasingly cost-competitive with traditional fossil fuel sources of electricity. In addition, wind energy is a clean and sustainable source of power, as it does not produce any greenhouse gas emissions or air pollutants during operation. One potential challenge with wind energy is its intermittent nature and highly dependent on weather conditions, as wind speeds can vary and be unpredictable. However, this challenge can be addressed through the integration of energy storage technologies, such as batteries or pumped hydro storage, to store excess electricity generated during times of high wind speeds for use when the wind speeds are lower. Overall, wind energy has significant potential as a source of renewable energy to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate climate change, while also promoting energy security and independence.  

Contributions across the spectrum of scientific and engineering disciplines concerned with the advancement of wind power capture, conversion, distribution, integration and utilization technologies are essential features of the journal. Research articles and reviews in this area of study are welcome.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.
