Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Given the continued decarbonization of the global electricity supply, large-scale adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs) is increasingly important, especially as they have been shown to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through more channels than previously expected. Next-generation EV technologies, including advanced powertrains, energy management, and grid interaction, represent the best smart solutions for transportation electrification and societal modernization in the 21st century.
Improved EV-related technologies can maintain a clean, green environment and offer a reliable solution for air pollution and carbon emissions; furthermore, with the increase in EV-charging infrastructure, their popularity has experienced significant growth. In this new wave of EV technology development, numerous new methods and tools have emerged, increasing EV adoption in our society and thus the implementation of intelligent driving, routing, energy management, grid-connected operation, etc. In addition, emerging interdisciplinary techniques, e.g., big data and AI techniques, are widely used to address EV powertrain control and battery energy management under variable road conditions and during unmanned vehicle driving. It is believed that these novel technologies will further enhance driving performance and EV–grid interaction, promoting low-carbon smart cities and 100% transportation electrification.
This Special Issue will present the latest developments in advanced EV powertrains, EV energy management, and EV–grid interaction. Authors are invited to submit original contributions considering, but not limited to, the following topics of interest:
Keywords:
- Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), electric vehicles (EVs);
- Range-extended EVs and unmanned EVs with low-carbon features;
- Highly efficient EV powertrains and power electronics;
- Advanced electric machines, motor drives, and propulsion architectures for EVs;
- Green charging stations, on-board and off-board chargers;
- EV fast chargers, opportunity chargers, and wireless charging;
- Vehicle-to-grid (V2G), vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I), and other V2X technology;
- Low-carbon EV–grid interaction and grid interface technologies;
- Power and transport nexus and utility-scale EV operation;
- V2G communication, vehicle connectivity, EV fleet, and EV routing;
- Low-carbon EV battery manufacture and pollution reduction;
- Energy storage systems and battery management systems (BMS);
- Heavy-duty electric vehicles and special-type 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. World Electric Vehicle Journal is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 1400 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.
