Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the depletion of fossil fuels and its adverse impact on global warming, transportation has continuously advanced towards electric vehicle (EV) technology over the past decade. By 2030, it is likely that the majority of cars will be battery-powered EVs. However, the development of EV power transmission is associated with an abundance of critical challenges and is therefore an active topic of research.
In this Special Issue, entitled "Power Electronics Technologies Applied to Electric Vehicles", we aim to comprehensively present the current situation, development prospects, and future trends regarding the application of power electronics conversion technologies for electric vehicles. More importantly, this Special Issue encourages the submission of articles that propose relevant measures and strategies in order to achieve high-power, low-cost, and reliable charging and energy transmission solutions for electric vehicles.
If you are interested in this topic and would like to share your work with us, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Prof. Dr. Ying-Chun Chuang
