Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the mandate of short-hull passenger flights by all-electric airplanes in 2040, the safety of battery systems never been of such great importance. Although batteries have successfully paved their way to the automotive industry, aerospace organizations continue to express concerns about battery safety. The academic and industrial communities thus need to extend their battery research that has so successfully accelerated the electrification of passenger cars into the future of air transport. To address these new challenges and opportunities, this Special Issue will focus on battery safety concerns and their diagnostic methodologies. Therefore, the topics of the contributions include but are not limited to:
- Review of battery safety methodologies;
- Recent progress on battery safety performance;
- Novel methodologies for battery safety characterization;
- Novel technologies for safer batteries;
- Experimental studies to evaluate battery safety performance;
- Battery safety modeling;
- Autopsy studies of failed battery pack/module/cell;
- New cell/module/pack design to improve battery safety performance;
- Lighter, safer materials/design of battery pack for aerospace applications.

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. Energies 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). 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.
