Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the rapid evolution of electric vehicles, distributed renewable energy, and decentralized energy systems, there is a growing demand for intelligent solutions that enhance stability, efficiency, and resilience. This Special Issue seeks high-quality submissions focused on the modeling, control, and real-world application of intelligent energy and predictive systems for sustainable technological advancement.
A key topic is the accurate estimation of a battery’s state of charge (SOC) and state of health (SOH), essential for ensuring safety and extending battery lifespan. Contributions are invited on fault diagnosis, battery aging modeling, and electrochemical analysis techniques, such as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), which enable real-time diagnostics and predictive maintenance.
We also welcome innovative works on battery management system (BMS) architecture and implementation, including cell balancing, system-level optimization, and integration into hybrid or renewable-based power platforms. Of growing importance are smart chargers and wireless charging systems, which support dynamic power control, adaptive charging protocols, and user- or grid-oriented strategies. These smart charging solutions play a vital role in enabling safe, rapid, and efficient charging for both stationary energy storage systems and electric mobility platforms while also enhancing interoperability in IoT-connected infrastructures.
Moreover, contributions on renewable energy systems and photovoltaic (PV) integration, especially under fluctuating environmental conditions and hybrid configurations, are encouraged.
In parallel, the rise in artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and deep learning (DL) opens up new possibilities in energy system optimization, health monitoring, and environmental forecasting. Submissions that explore predictive models and algorithms applied to energy control, healthcare diagnostics, and smart environmental systems are particularly relevant. Studies that integrate computer science, image processing, or intelligent sensors into energy or health-focused applications are also highly valued.

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.
