Abstract
Safety enhancement for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) has received a lot of attention from academic and industrial fields. However, there is a lack of overview from the perspective of the application power electronics (PEs) in the systems. This article gives an overview of PE-based safety enhancement technologies for LIBs, mainly focusing on battery management. It introduces the latest advances in battery protection, balancing, monitoring, and lifetime improvement, all based on PE technologies. Detailed discussion and future research opportunities are given. This article aims to provide a reference for PE researchers who want to make some efforts in LIB safety.
