Editorial for the Virtual Special Issue of Journal of Power Sources “Low temperature fuel cells and electrolysers” - Science and engineering: Let's play this game hand in hand!
Electrochemistry is already and will increasingly be amongst the major drivers of our energetic mix decarbonization, so to fight anthropogenic global warming. The hydrogen economy vector (ideally produced in water electrolysers using renewable electricity and transformed back into electricity in fuel cells), in parallel with the conversion of carbon dioxide and nitrogen gas into value-added products are seen as pillars of the so-called green and sustainable Energy Revolution. The hydrogen technologies presently attract increasing interest, their momentum growing irremediably in Europe, Asia and Americas. Here, this Virtual Special Issue (VSI) gathers the latest scientific results of major research laboratories worldwide, all addressing various aspects of electrochemical energy and material conversion processes.

Editorial: Themed issue on data-intensive water systems management and operation
The water sector increasingly looks at intensified instrumentation, data collection and automation as tools for daily use. Still, a massive opportunity remains to fully embrace emerging methods and technologies, such as artificial intelligence, data analytics, low-cost sensor hardware, and cloud computing. Indeed, sensing and automation technology has already infiltrated many facets of society. As such, the time is ripe to evaluate the role of novel technologies for systems monitoring, diagnostics, and automation of aquatic processes and large-scale water systems. When leveraged, the water sector will do more with less.

Editorial for the Collection "Preparatory Work for the American Wake Experiment (AWAKEN)"
The American WAKE experimeNt (AWAKEN) is a large field campaign focused on gathering observations for improved understanding of atmospheric and wind power plant flow physics, one of the outstanding needs for the wind energy community as described in the Science paper by Veers et al.1 "Grand challenges in wind energy." AWAKEN was planned over several years with an international consortium of numerous stakeholders, including national laboratories, academic researchers, wind turbine manufacturers, and wind farm operators. A highlight of the AWAKEN campaign is the extensive use of remote sensing instrumentation to characterize the atmosphere and its interactions with wind power plants, enabled by recent developments in lidar, radar, and thermodynamic profiling technology. Advanced modeling techniques like mesoscale and large-eddy simulations (LES) also played an important role in the preparation of the experiment and the interpretation of the experimental data collected. This special-topic issue for the Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy presents a collection of 12 papers that describe the preparatory work and some initial analyses from the AWAKEN campaign. An overview of the contents of the various papers in this special issue is provided in Sec. II.

Guest Editorial
The design of X-ray optical systems is very different from that of conventional optical systems, whether it be for the peculiarities of synchrotron radiation or the grazing incidence operation of most X-ray optical components. Further, specific simulation tools are thus required to ensure that designs work as expected, and there is now a vibrant landscape of open-source, freely available software that can be used to that end, and explore new design concepts.

Editorial for focus on nanophase materials for next-generation lithium-ion batteries and beyond
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have revolutionized our society in many respects, and we are expecting even more favorable changes in our lifestyles with newer battery technologies. In pursuing such eligible batteries, nanophase materials play some important roles in LIBs and beyond technologies. Here, stimulated by their beneficial effects of nanophase materials, we initiated this Focus. Excitingly, this Focus collects 13 excellent original research and review articles related to the applications of nanophase materials in various rechargeable batteries, ranging from nanostructured electrode materials, nanoscale interface tailoring, novel separators, computational calculations, and advanced characterizations.

Editorial for the 28th Workshop on Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Stability Control
This special issue contains four papers which were presented at the 28th Workshop on Magnetohydrodymanic (MHD) Stability Control. The workshop was held at Auburn University and on Zoom from 3–5 October 2024. Furthermore, this annual workshop covers the active and passive control of MHD instabilities such as kink, tearing and edge-localized modes in tokamaks, reversed field pinches, spherical tori or other magnetic confinement devices.

Welcome to the Special Issue on Grid-Edge Computing With Behind-the-Meter Resources [Guest Editorial]
The integration of distributed energy resources (DERs), such as solar photovoltaic systems, as well as other synergistic assets, including electric vehicles, energy storage, and smart appliances, in electric power systems has been dramatically increasing in the past few years. These assets have the capability to provide much-needed flexibility to electric power systems for improved grid reliability, resilience, and economic efficiency; however, most of these resources are located behind the meter (BTM) on customer premises, and their flexibility is not fully used in current grid operations. Grid-edge computing plays an important role in unlocking the great benefits and potential that BTM resources could provide to electric power systems by enhancing visibility and controllability at the grid edge.

Future Industrial Demand: Large, Elastic, and Concentrated [Guest Editorial]
Here, the future industrial demand on the grid is expected to be large, price sensitive, and concentrated. Grid industrial demand increasingly encompasses a new customer type defined as a large flexible load (LFL). This LFL type defines customers with consumption that responds quickly to price or other incentives without interrupting their core business process, such cryptocurrency mining. This customer type can often ramp up and down quickly, which across an entire industry can mean gigawatts of power within a few minutes. In addition to these price-sensitive loads, significant growth is also anticipated in sectors like manufacturing, data centers, and electrification of transportation and buildings.

Guest Editorial for Nondestructive Testing and Evaluation (NDT&E) Special Section
Nondestructive testing and evaluation (NDT&E) are interdisciplinary fields that require a significant amount of interconnection between fundamental physics, measurement techniques, data processing, decision making, and reporting to have a significant impact on industry. NDT&E practitioners are challenged to keep up with the fast-paced evolution of materials, structures, processing, and manufacturing technologies. The development of engineered materials, complex structures and composites, and novel forming techniques require NDT&E to rapidly evolve to meet the needs of industry.

Guest Editorial: Special section on Resilient Control of Cyber-Physical Power and Energy Systems
Our power and energy systems are becoming more and more integrated and interconnected. The increasing integration of edge devices and dependence on cyber infrastructure provides both the potential for benefits and risks. The integration enables more dynamic and flexible control paradigms while at the same time increasing the cyberattack surface and uncertainty of behavior. Control methodology in this new world must be designed for resilience and must have the ability to withstand, react, and respond to both physical faults and cyber-induced threats. Finally, understanding system resilience under adverse conditions requires studying control performance and how cyber infrastructure can integrate with and support the overall resilience of the system.
