Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Energy storage technologies, and, in particular, battery technologies, are key enablers of the electrification of many sectors of our economy and daily lives. Combined with renewable energy generation, they represent one of the most central technologies for the transition to a sustainable future. Research into advanced battery technologies, whether on material, cell, or system level, plays a vital role in supporting this transition by making batteries more affordable, sustainable, and safe for both mobile and stationary applications.
This Special Issue aims to highlight and disseminate the most recent advances in the field of battery technology. A special emphasis is placed on the assessment of their potential in real-world applications, ranging from electric trucks to data center uninterruptible power supplies.
Topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Advances in battery materials and their impacts on cell- or system-level performance.
- Methods for extending battery lifetime (both through technology/material improvements and operational strategies).
- Economic potential of new battery technologies.
- Improvements to battery sustainability.
- Novel production technologies and their impact on costs and energy consumption.
- Innovative methods for battery reuse and recycling.
- New business models for grid-scale battery systems.
- Application-specific performance improvements enabled by battery innovations.
I look forward to your contributions to this Special Issue and to insights on how battery innovations translate into real-world applications.
Dr. Martin Florian Börner
