Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The transformation of mobility toward electrification is in full swing. The electrification of transport relies on battery technology.
This Special Issue will focus on battery production and its enablement. Process innovations that positively influence production will also be discussed here. This positive development can be expressed, for example, through lower costs, reduced scrap rates or the increased quality of the batteries. Moreover, the innovations should increase the sustainability of battery production. The Special Issue also focuses on the accompanying processes for production. In terms of the complete battery product life cycle, other components in the battery development and usage are also covered. Innovations in battery cell design—which, among other things, optimize performance in later operation or manufacturability—are integrated. Concepts for the end-of-life of batteries are essential for the sustainable use of electromobility. Accordingly, the recyclability of the systems plays a role in increasing resource efficiency.
