Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Rechargeable battery systems are experiencing rapid advancement due to their pivotal roles in the advanced electrification of transportation and built environment, e.g., electric vehicles and electrical demand levelling. Among different battery technologies, the electro-chemistry based batteries, such as lithium-ion is drawing vast amount of attention considering its advantages of high power rating, high energy density, low discharge rate, and long cycling life. Reliable monitoring of these batteries’ state of charge (SOC) and instantaneous capacity is critically important to achieve safe and efficient operation. Despite their importance, SOC and capacity determination remains as a challenging task as they are both inherently internal states which cannot be directly measured.
Although there have been papers published in recent years on various techniques to improve the estimation of SOC, the situation is still unsatisfactory as there are many issues of lack of accuracies, difficulties in practical implementation and independent verifications. This Special Issue is, therefore, timely, and I look forward to your contributions to bring the technologies in estimation of states of charge and health of batteries to the next level.

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. Batteries 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 2700 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.
