Abstract
Presently, as the world advances rapidly towards achieving net-zero emissions, lithium-ion battery (LIB) energy storage systems (ESS) have emerged as a critical component in the transition away from fossil fuel-based energy generation, offering immense potential in achieving a sustainable environment. This study conducts an in-depth analysis of grid-connected LIB ESS patents published from 1998 to 2022, aiming to comprehend essential developments and trends in the technology landscape while identifying key players and inventors. Employing extensive keyword searches within the Lens database, 95 patent documents were extracted along with the bibliometric data. The research highlights two prominent factors in the field of grid-connected LIB ESS patents. Firstly, a detailed patent bibliometric analysis including patent growth trends, keyword analysis, patent distribution over jurisdiction, and subject categories was presented. Moreover, the research identifies key owners, inventors and hierarchical jurisdiction in patent document publishing and evaluates the possibilities for future research sustainability. Secondly, detailed updates regarding technological advancements that are driving sustainable grid-connected LIB ESS development in various sectors such as; gird connected ESS, power conversion system (PCS), energy management system (EMS) and transportation sector are provided. The study concluded that the patents related to grid-connected ESS, minimizing voltage and frequency regulation to achieve grid stability and EMS of LIB are the key trending topics in the field of grid-connected LIB ESS. The comprehensive analysis not only illuminates crucial trends but also provides valuable guidance to future researchers and industry stakeholders, facilitating the path towards sustainable grid-connected LIB ESS and paving the way for a more environmentally conscious energy landscape. ? 2023 Elsevier Ltd
