For electric vehicles, lithium-ion batteries were presented as the best option, whereas sodium-batteries were frequently discussed as preferable to lithium in non-transport applications. As one respondent stated, ‘Sodium-ion batteries are emerging as a favourable option for stationary energy storage.’
The applications of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have been widespread including electric vehicles (EVs) and hybridelectric vehicles (HEVs) because of their lucrative characteristics such as high energy density, long cycle life, environmental friendliness, high power density, low self-discharge, and the absence of memory effect [, , ].
In particular, this paper analyzes seven types of design approaches, starting from the basic. The proposed classification is original and reflects the improvements achieved in the design of Li-ion batteries. The first methods described in the paper are Heuristic and Simulation-driven.
One way to overcome instability in the power supply is by using a battery energy storage system (BESS). Therefore, this study provides a detailed and critical review of sizing and siting optimization of BESS, their application challenges, and a new perspective on the consequence of degradation from the ambient temperature.
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have nowadays become outstanding rechargeable energy storage devices with rapidly expanding fields of applications due to convenient features like high energy density, high power density, long life cycle and not having memory effect.
The design complexity increased due to the high degree of modularity of the battery system and the need for scalability. In this context, Narayanaswamy et al. highlighted how manual design approaches for Li-ion batteries are time-consuming and are error-prone.
