Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Rechargeable Li-ion batteries have emerged as leading candidates for energy storage in transportation electrification. However, the cost reduction in Li-ion batteries has shown a stabilizing trend in the recent years, threatening the growth of electric vehicle adoption. Continued and rapid drop in battery prices is crucial to accelerate transportation electrification and the replacement of internal compulsion engines. This Special Issue is dedicated to reporting advances in battery materials, battery manufacturing technologies, battery management, battery reuse, and battery recycling technologies that contribute to the safety, performance, reliability, and cost reduction in rechargeable Li-ion battery systems.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Equivalent circuit model approaches to battery management systems;
- Battery system identification approaches;
- Approaches to battery state of charge and state of health modeling;
- Battery thermal management;
- Novel battery charging solutions;
- Cell balancing strategies;
- Challenges faced in battery reuse applications;
- Challenges in Li-ion battery recycling;
- Performance analysis of battery management system algorithms.

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. 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
