Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We invite researchers, practitioners, and industry experts to submit their original research and case studies on the latest advancements in Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technologies. This Special Issue aims to highlight practical demonstrations and real-world applications that showcase the potential of V2G systems in enhancing grid stability, optimizing energy use, and supporting the integration of renewable energy sources.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Innovative V2G pilot projects: Detailed case studies and outcomes from recent V2G implementations.
  • Optimization techniques: AI-driven algorithms and machine learning methods for improving V2G operations.
  • Economic and environmental impacts: Analysis of cost benefits and sustainability contributions of V2G systems.
  • Policy and regulatory frameworks: Insights into legislative advancements and challenges in V2G adoption.
  • User experience and engagement: Studies on user participation and satisfaction in V2G programs.

Submissions should provide comprehensive insights into the practical challenges and solutions encountered in V2G deployments. Accepted papers will contribute to a deeper understanding of how V2G technologies can be effectively integrated into modern energy systems.

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.
