This book reviews recent trends, developments, and technologies of energy storage devices and their applications. The book examines the technology of thin-film energy storage devices based on physical vapor deposition as well as the challenges of ionic polymer-metal composite membranes. It describes the electrical equivalent circuit model of batteries, the technology of battery energy storage systems in rooftop solar-photovoltaic (PV) systems, and the implementation of second-life batteries in hybrid electric vehicles. The book considers a novel energy management control strategy for PV batteries operating in DC microgrids, along with the present state and opportunities of solid-state batteries.

This book will be a collection of the papers presented in the 2021 International Joint Conference on Energy, Electrical and Power Engineering (CoEEPE’21), covering new and renewable energy, electrical and power engineering. It is expected to report the latest technological developments in the fields developed by academic researchers and industrial practitioners, with a focus on power electronics, energy storage and system control in energy and electrical power systems.
