Data Exchange between Vehicle and Power System for Optimal Charging

Dear Colleagues, 

The data sharing between charging/discharging electric vehicles and power systems is important for a successful interaction of the vehicles with the grid. Information exchange is also needed at the design stage, as well as in the control of the electric vehicle motor and battery system. Moreover, data resolution, security, and sustainability aspects need to be taken into account. In the near future, we will likely see different types of electrified vehicles on the market (trucks, cars, boats, aircraft, autonomous vehicles, etc.), new designs in propulsion systems, and smart charging strategies (cable charging, wireless charging, battery swapping, V2G, high-power charging, etc.) for different applications and in different environments (buildings, airports, construction sites, etc.).  

In this context, we welcome you to submit manuscripts in areas such as, but not limited to:

• Data exchange between electric vehicles and power systems.
• Data sharing when implementing different charging strategies.
• Interaction between the motor and the battery system with respect to, e.g., regenerative charging.
• Vehicle-to-grid (V2G), vehicle-to-everything (V2X), etc., including pros and cons. Smart charging strategies, algorithms, and charging standards.
• Energy system modelling, including, e.g., renewable energy systems, FEM or real-time simulations, and experimental work.
• Energy management systems.
• Security and safety aspects.
• Equipment and measurement systems for vehicle-grid interaction.

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.
