Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Due to the energy crisis and environmental pollution, new energy/electric vehicles have been paid more and more attention and become the main direction of future automobile development. According to research conducted by Favigham in the United States, by 2035, the total number of vehicles in the world will be at least 2 billion, but electric vehicles will only account for one-tenth. Compared with traditional vehicles (internal combustion engine vehicles), electric vehicles (EVs) are energy-saving and environmentally friendly. Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) are a form between traditional vehicles and EVs, which can reduce fuel consumption and reduce emissions. Among them, plug-in HEVs are classified as new energy vehicles, while non-plug-in HEVs still belong to traditional vehicles.
During the operation of the vehicle, the estimation error of the internal state of the battery such as SOC, SOH, and SOP is large, and as the battery ages, the estimation error becomes larger and larger, so that the battery management system (BMS) cannot monitor the actual state of the battery, which can easily lead to the battery overcharge and over-discharge, accelerated aging, reduced usable capacity, and shortened remaining life. On the other hand, the energy management system cannot accurately allocate power requirements according to the actual state of the battery, resulting in the unreasonable implementation of energy management strategies, increased battery loss, and halfway breakdown.
Therefore, there is an urgent need to investigate new strategies and promising approaches for intelligent energy management and battery management for hybrid/electric vehicles. With this Special Issue, we aim to provide an overview of recent advances in artificial intelligence/machine learning/deep learning for energy management and battery management and their applications in different fields. A further aim of this Special Issue is to provide a contribution to advances in modeling, estimation, optimal control, optimal charging, energy management of electric vehicles and applications of related devices and components.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- Electric vehicles
- Fuel cell vehicles
- Hybrid vehicles
- Plug-in vehicles
- Electric vehicle batteries
- Electric vehicle battery management systems
- Electric vehicle charging systems
- Autonomous driving
- Autonomous vehicles
- Performance of electric vehicles

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Electronics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
