If you're wanting to invest in some exchange traded funds (ETFs), then the two listed below could be worth considering.

Here's what you need to know about these highly rated ETFs:

ETFS Battery Tech & Lithium ETF (ASX: ACDC)

The ETFS Battery Tech & Lithium ETF could be a top option for investors that are looking to gain exposure to the electrification and decarbonisation trend. That's because this ETF provides investors with exposure to a range of companies involved in battery technology and lithium mining.

This includes the likes of AMG Advanced Metallurgical Group and Lockheed Martin, as well as Australia's own Mineral Resources Limited (ASX: MIN) and Pilbara Minerals Ltd (ASX: PLS). These companies look set to benefit greatly from the shift to clean energy and electric vehicles.

One analyst that is particularly positive on the ETF is Jessica Amir from Saxo Markets. Amir recently told Livewire that she believes this ETF could be a top option for investors that aren't keen on stock-picking but want to gain exposure to the decarbonisation megatrend.

VanEck Vectors MSCI World ex Australia Quality ETF (ASX: QUAL)

The VanEck Vectors MSCI World ex Australia Quality ETF could be another ETF to consider buying this week.

This ETF gives investors access to a basket of high quality shares from across the world but excluding Australia. This means it could be a good option for investors that are already overweight with ASX investments.

But what is high quality? To be selected for the fund, companies need to pass certain criteria. This includes having low leverage, high earnings growth rates, and high returns on equity. Companies that have ticked these boxes and have been included in the fund are Apple, Microsoft, Nike, and Nvidia.

Shaw and Partners' Felicity Thomas is positive on the ETF. She recently told Livewire: "With rising interest rates and the war that's going on in Europe, I actually think it's important to invest in quality companies with high revenue growth and a solid balance sheet, which QUAL provides."
