Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the rapid development of the social economy, energy security and environmental protection have become urgent issues facing mankind. The use of renewable energy to generate electricity can alleviate the above problems to a certain extent. In the development and application of renewable power generation systems, such as wind power generation and photovoltaic power generation, new energy storage and energy conversion technologies are vital. The application of advanced energy storage/conversion technologies can promote the continuous and stable generation of power by renewable energy sources, while reducing wind and solar abandonment rates. Among them, the rapid development of battery technology is crucial to the realization of the efficient use of renewable energy and low-carbon as well as low-emission operation.

The Special Issue, titled “Battery Management and Advanced Energy Storage/Conversion Technologies in Renewable Power Systems: From Batteries to Fuel Cells and Hybrid Solutions”, is focused on the integration and management of fuel cells or other hybrid energy systems with battery storage at their core, suitable for large-scale applications and sustainable complex energy systems.

The scope of this Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:

  • Battery energy storage in renewable energy;
  • Solar PV–battery hybrid systems (design, optimization, and applications);
  • Fuel cell integration and hybrid energy systems (e.g., hydrogen production, fuel cell–battery hybrids);
  • Application of artificial intelligence in battery management systems;
  • Battery safety management;
  • Battery thermal management.

This paper develops a model for lithium-ion batteries under dynamic stress testing (DST) and federal urban driving schedule (FUDS) conditions that incorporates associated hysteresis characteristics of 18650-format lithium iron-phosphate batteries. Additionally, it introduces the adaptive sliding mode observer algorithm (ASMO) to achieve robust and swiftly accurate estimation of the state of charge (SOC) of lithium-iron-phosphate batteries during electric vehicle duty cycles. The established simplified hysteresis model in this paper significantly enhances the fitting accuracy during charging and discharging processes, compensating for voltage deviations induced by hysteresis characteristics. The SOC estimation, even in the face of model parameter changes under complex working conditions during electric vehicle duty cycles, maintains high robustness by capitalizing on the easy convergence and parameter insensitivity of ASMO. Lastly, experiments conducted under different temperatures and FUDS and DST conditions validate that the SOC estimation of lithium-iron-phosphate batteries, based on the adaptive sliding-mode observer and the simplified hysteresis model, exhibits enhanced robustness and faster convergence under complex working conditions and temperature variations during electric vehicle duty cycles.

Aiming at the electrical safety problem of a high-voltage lithium-ion battery system caused by an arc, and based on the establishment of a battery arc fault experimental platform, the evolution law of safety caused by an arc in the negative terminal of a battery system under different working conditions is discussed. On this basis, a battery arc evolution model based on magnetohydrodynamics is established to analyze the arc’s electro-thermal coupling characteristics to further obtain the distribution of the arc’s multi-physical field. The results show that the arc generated by the high-voltage grade battery pack will break down the cell’s shell and form a hole, resulting in electrolyte leakage. When the loop current is 10 A, the evolution law of arc voltage and current is basically the same under different supply voltages, charges, and discharges. The accuracy of the battery arc simulation model is verified by comparing the simulation with the experimental results. The research in this paper provides a theoretical basis for the electrical safety design of lithium-ion batteries caused by the arc, fills the gaps in the field of battery system arc simulation, and is of great significance for improving the safety performance of arc protection.

This paper investigates the polarization and heat generation characteristics of batteries under different ambient temperatures and discharge rates by means of using a coupled electric–thermal model. This study found that the largest percentage of polarization is ohmic polarization, followed by concentration polarization and electrochemical polarization. The values of the three types of polarization are generally small and stable under normal-temperature environments and low discharge rates. However, they increase significantly in low-temperature environments and at high discharge rates and continue to rise during the discharge process. Additionally, ohmic heat generation and polarization generation also increase significantly under these conditions. Reversible entropy heat is less sensitive to ambient temperature but increases significantly with the increase in the discharge rate. Ohmic heat generation and polarization heat generation contribute to the total heat generation of the battery at any ambient temperature, while reversible entropy heat only contributes to the total heat generation of the battery at the end of discharge.
