Battery Energy Storage in Advanced Power Systems

Dear Colleagues,

In order to solve the shortage of traditional energy sources and the urgent need to improve environmental quality and accelerate decarbonization, advanced power systems using renewable energy generation and energy storage integration have received a wealth of attention from all over the world. The performance of the battery energy storage system greatly affects the efficiency and safety of the advanced power system. Therefore, the battery energy storage system plays a vital role in the safe and reliable operation of electric power systems, which includes researching new battery electrodes and electrolyte materials with high energy density and solid safety, developing a battery energy storage thermoelectric management system with excellent consistency, durability and safety, and optimizing the intelligent energy management strategy.

Therefore, this Special Issue is focused on recent advances in battery energy storage materials, including electro-thermal management systems that address the above-mentioned aspects and go beyond the state-of-the-art.

Prospective authors are invited to submit original contributions/articles for review and for possible publication in this Special Issue. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

• High-performance battery materials;
• Integration of battery energy storage systems;
• State estimation of battery energy storage systems;
• Life prediction of battery energy storage systems;
• Thermal management of battery energy storage systems;
• Safety management of battery energy storage systems;
• Energy management of advanced power systems;
• Hybrid energy storage in advanced power systems.
