Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) systems have gained significant attention due to their potential in various applications, including electric vehicles, drones, and wireless charging technologies. Recently, WPT has evolved by being integrated with wireless communication systems, giving rise to Simultaneous Wireless Information and Power Transfer (SWIPT) technologies. Further research is exploring the broader framework of Integrated Sensing, Communication, and Power Transfer (ISCPT) systems, which enable the joint optimization of energy transfer, data communication, and sensing functionalities.
This Special Issue aims to present and disseminate the most recent advances related to the efficiency, optimization, and applications of WPT, SWIPT, and ISCPT systems. We invite contributions that explore novel methodologies, design strategies, and real-world applications to enhance performance, integration, and practical deployment.
Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the following:
- High-efficiency WPT circuit and system design.
- Optimization techniques for WPT, SWIPT, and ISCPT systems.
- Applications of WPT and SWIPT in electric vehicles, drones, and maritime platforms.
- Wireless charging and energy harvesting technologies.
- Integrated Sensing, Communication, and Power Transfer (ISCPT) systems.
- AI and machine learning approaches for adaptive WPT/SWIPT/ISCPT control.
- Safety, standardization, and regulatory considerations in wireless power and SWIPT systems.
Modeling, simulation, and experimental validation of WPT, SWIPT, and ISCPT systems.

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. Energies 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 2600 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.
