Progresses in Advanced Research on Intelligent Electric Vehicles

Dear Colleagues,

We cordially invite you to contribute to our Special Issue of Energies on the theme of “Progresses in Advanced Research on Intelligent Electric Vehicles”.

In order to build cleaner and more efficient vehicles, automobile industries worldwide have exhibited a clear trend towards developing technology in the direction of fuel decarburization, energy diversification, and power electrification. Electric vehicles (EVs), which represent energy-saving and new energy automobiles, have become an effective way to solve the problems of air pollution, oil shortage, and low efficiency and, thus, help automobile industries to transition into the development of a sustainable method of transport. As such, the research and development of EVs has attracted worldwide attention and taken on an accelerated pace. The International Conference on Electric and Intelligent Vehicles (ICEIV2018), which was held in Australia on Nov 21th–25th, 2018, has provided an excellent forum for scientists, researchers, engineers, and government officials all over the world to present and discuss the latest key EV technologies and development trends.

The ICEIV2018 program featured keynote speeches, workshops, and paper sessions, and the theme of this associated Special Issue is “Progresses in Advanced Research on Intelligent Electric Vehicles”. Topics of interest for this Special Issue include but are not limited to:

1. Electric/hybrid vehicles;
2. Intelligent vehicles;
3. Connected automated vehicles;
4. Vehicle technology;
5. Energy storage technology;
6. Motor and power electronics.
