Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid expansion of battery applications—from electric vehicles (EVs) to grid-scale energy storage—has intensified the demand for advanced safety and management strategies. As battery systems grow in complexity, integrating intelligent technologies becomes critical to prevent failures, enhance sustainability, and unlock the potential of the Intelligence Revolution in energy storage. With the continuous expansion of application scenarios, battery systems face multiple challenges, such as thermal runaway risks, cycle life degradation, and extreme environmental adaptability. These issues are not only related to the performance of batteries themselves but also directly influence the development of key technologies such as electric vehicles and large-scale energy storage. This Special Issue explores key strategies addressing safety, sustainability, and smart management, driving the evolution of battery technology, including, but not limited to, the following topics:
- Battery Safety Strategies for improved battery safety and performance;
- Intelligent algorithms for battery state estimation and fault diagnostics;
- Machine learning applications in battery health prognosis;
- Sustainable Battery Management: Deep learning models predict battery lifespan and voltage degradation using minimal data, enabling proactive maintenance and extending operational longevity.
- Intelligent Battery Management Systems (BMS), optimization of battery management for electric vehicles and stationary storage.
This Special Issue will bring together cutting-edge research from safety, sustainability, and smart management technology. The industry can mitigate risks, reduce environmental impact, and harness the full potential of energy storage, offering theoretical guidance and technical support for building safer and more reliable batteries and energy storage systems. We welcome innovative contributions from diverse disciplines.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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.
