Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
EVs can eliminate road traffic-oriented a pollution and consequently could improve air quality, reduce noise pollution as well as carbon emissions. EVs have a major role in governments’ Net Zero targets around the world, such as in the UK’s 2050 target. Governments around the world have been supporting various measures to encourage uptake of EVs for both private and public transport. The UK government has announced plans to end the sale of petrol and diesel cars by 2030 and hybrid cars by 2035.
EVs are autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicles attached with thousands of automotive sensors. So, technically, it is an automotive sensor network, which is subsequently part of a highly dynamic connected and autonomous vehicle network infrastructure in a road traffic environment. Therefore, the success of EV and related green mobility ambitions in the future revolves around automotive sensors, traffic data, and data fusion. This Special Issue is targeting scientific innovations around sensors in EV and charging or energy networks.

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. Sensors 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 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs).
