Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have seen widespread application in numerous important industrial sectors, including electric vehicles, energy storage systems, wireless sensor networks, and consumer electronics. Nevertheless, safe and intelligent charging of lithium-ion batteries remains challenging, and there is much room for improvement in this regard. Performance degradation occurs throughout the lifespan of a lithium-ion battery, or/and under low-charge status and sub-ambient temperatures. As a result, an optimal charging strategy for a new battery is no longer suitable, and may even be harmful for an aged or cold battery. Additionally, attempting to charge batteries in rainy environments and with worn/aged connectors may lead to electric shock or fire. Finally, the commonly used wired charging mode struggles to meet the requirements of autonomous driving in intelligent charging.

For this Special Issue, we seeking new contributions on the following topics (among others):

  • Aging mechanisms of LIBs through in situ and ex situ detection;
  • Full-cycle charging safety assessment and strategies for LIBs;
  • State (including SOC, SOH, SOT, RUL) estimation methods for LIBs;
  • Rapid self-heating methods for LIBs at low temperatures;
  • Modeling and control of stationary/dynamic wireless charging systems;
  • Innovative applications of wireless charging technologies;
  • Foreign object detection technologies for wireless charging systems;
  • Assessments on overheating risk of wireless charging systems caused by coil misalignment, metal intrusion, power loss, etc.

Energy storage systems are essential in modern energy infrastructure, addressing efficiency, power quality, and reliability challenges in DC/AC power systems. Recognized for their indispensable role in ensuring grid stability and seamless integration with renewable energy sources. These storage systems prove crucial for aircraft, shipboard systems, and electric vehicles, addressing peak load demands economically while enhancing overall system reliability and efficiency. Recent advancements and research have focused on high-power storage technologies, including supercapacitors, superconducting magnetic energy storage, and flywheels, characterized by high-power density and rapid response, ideally suited for applications requiring rapid charging and discharging. Hybrid energy storage systems and multiple energy storage devices represent enhanced flexibility and resilience, making them increasingly attractive for diverse applications, including critical loads. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of recent technological advancements in high-power storage devices, including lithium-ion batteries, recognized for their high energy density. In addition, a summary of hybrid energy storage system applications in microgrids and scenarios involving critical and pulse loads is provided. The research further discusses power, energy, cost, life, and performance technologies. Full article
