Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid evolution of battery technologies and their integration into various applications, such as electric vehicles, renewable energy systems, and portable electronics, has highlighted the critical role of power electronics in enhancing battery management systems (BMSs). Power electronics not only facilitate efficient energy conversion and management but also play a pivotal role in improving the safety, reliability, and performance of battery systems. As the demand for higher energy density, longer lifespan, and faster charging capabilities continues to grow, advancements in power electronics are essential to address these challenges and unlock the full potential of modern battery technologies.
This Special Issue aims to showcase the latest research and innovations in power electronics tailored for advanced battery management systems. We invite contributions that explore novel topologies, control strategies, and integration techniques that enhance the efficiency, reliability, and functionality of BMS. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Advanced power converter topologies for battery charging and discharging;
- High-efficiency DC-DC and DC-AC converters for BMS applications;
- Wide-bandgap semiconductor devices in power electronics for BMS;
- Thermal management and optimization in power electronic systems;
- Intelligent control algorithms for battery state estimation and energy management;
- Integration of power electronics with renewable energy systems and grid storage;
- Fault diagnosis and fault-tolerant strategies in power electronics for BMS;
- Emerging trends in wireless power transfer and fast-charging technologies;
- Power electronics for second-life battery applications and recycling;
- Cybersecurity and communication protocols in BMS power electronics.
We welcome original research articles, reviews, and case studies that contribute to the advancement of power electronics in the context of battery management systems. By bringing together cutting-edge research, this Special Issue aims to foster collaboration and innovation in this rapidly evolving field.
We look forward to your submissions and to sharing the latest developments in power electronics for enhanced battery management systems.
Sincerely,
Prof. Dr. Gang Li
Guest Editor
