Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Guest Editors invite submissions to a Special Issue of Energies entitled “Lithium-Ion and Lithium–Sulfur Batteries for Vehicular Applications”. Batteries have been proven to be a highly viable solution in the age of electrochemical transportation. This Special Issue will deal with all advances and reviews related to lithium-ion and lithium–sulfur batteries for automotive purposes, which include ground vehicles (e.g., cars, HGVs), rail, aviation, unmanned aerial vehicles, and personal electric vehicles (PEVs). Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Battery cycling;
- Battery characterization;
- Battery modeling;
- Battery vehicle powertrain modeling;
- Battery materials;
- Battery degradation;
- Energy management systems;
- Battery electric vehicles;
- Hardware-in-the-loop and software-in-the-loop testing;
- Imaging of batteries or battery materials;
- Sizing of vehicle power systems;
- Drive cycle testing for batteries.

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.
