Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Transportation electrification is crucial for energy transition, contributing to the decarbonization of energy supply. The booming development of electric vehicles causes a considerable increase in battery storage, which can be integrated into the power systems. To unlock this flexibility potential for renewable energy integration and grid stabilization, smart electric vehicle-energy system control and intelligent charging technologies should be implemented. Moreover, to enhance the driving convenience of customers, fast charging technology is urgently needed. However, high current charging induces the lithium dendrite growth, leading to irreversible degradation, internal short circuit, severe heat generation, and even some safety issues. Furthermore, efficient charging is challenging for a battery system under low temperatures, limited charging capacity and accelerated aging rate are much more severe than normal temperature applications, and it is necessary to combine the preheating strategies with charging stations. Charging speed, temperature uniformity, safety, and energy cost should be considered in the future advanced charging technologies. Therefore, this Special Issue seeks potential studies scientifically discussing the smart charging technologies, vehicle to everything, and low-carbon methods to support the current and future concepts of intelligent vehicles integrated with the power system. Original studies are also encouraged covering all aspects of electrified transportation integration modes and various charging, electricity generation–storage technologies.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Electronics 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 2400 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.
