Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
New and innovative technologies are considered a smart solution of charging systems and infrastructure for the increasing number of electric vehicles (EVs). However, state-of-the-art smart EV charging systems are desirable for zero-emission neighborhoods. Smart charging refers to a charging system where electric vehicles, charging stations, and charging operators share data connections. Through smart charging, the charging stations may monitor, manage, and restrict the use of charging devices to optimize energy consumption. A smart or optimized EV charging system can not only manage energy systems but also improve the energy reliability and flexibility of buildings and neighborhoods.
This Special Issue invites research articles which provide solutions related to smart EV charging systems for zero-emission neighborhoods.
