“…[ 1 ] To meet the objective of carbon neutrality, the energy transition from a low‐efficiency and carbon‐intensive energy system to a future of deep decarbonization, high‐efficiency, and renewability is becoming a general agreement in nations around the globe. [ 2 ] Energy‐storage systems based on Li‐ion battery technology play an essential role in access to on‐grid and off‐grid renewable energy systems. However, incidents of fire in battery storage power facilities throughout the globe are a continual reminder of the potential safety risks posed by Li‐ion batteries.…”

The Li plating behavior of Li‐ion batteries under fast charging conditions is elusive due to a lack of reliable indicators of the Li plating onset. In this work, the relaxation time constant of the charge transfer process (τCT) is proposed to be promising for the determination of Li plating onset. A novel pulse/relaxation test method enables a rapid access to the τCT of the graphite anode during battery operation, applicable to both half and full batteries. The diagnosis of Li plating at varying temperatures and charging rates enriches the cognition of Li plating behaviors. Li plating at low temperatures and high charging rates can be avoided because of the battery voltage limitations. Nevertheless, after the onset, severe Li plating evolves rapidly under harsh charging conditions, while the Li plating process under benign charging conditions is accompanied by a simultaneous Li intercalation process. The quantitative estimates indicate that Li plating at high temperatures/high charging rates leads to more irreversible capacity losses. This facile method with rational scientific principles can provide inspiration for exploring the safe boundaries of Li‐ion batteries.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved

“…Batteries are widely used energy storage devices (ESDs) in photovoltaic (PV) systems, hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), DC microgrids, and domestic electronics applications [1] [2]. The load that extracts pulsating current from the batteries has small average power [3]. A battery capacity is normally measured by the predicted average power consumption of a typical electronic appliance.…”

Battery-Ultracapacitor Hybrid Energy Storage System to Increase Battery Life Under Pulse Loads

et al. 2022

This work presents a battery-ultracapacitor hybrid energy storage system (HESS) for pulsed loads (PL) in which ultracapacitors (UCs) run the pulse portion of the load while the battery powers the constant part of the load. Energy stored in UC depends upon the square of its voltage that's why an active parallel hybrid topology with two bidirectional converters (BDC) is employed here that assigns UC a separate BDC to control its voltage between an upper and lower limit as per-requisite. The other converter is connected between the battery and DC-link to provide a distinct control of the battery. A MATLAB/Simulink model is developed to minimize the factors affecting the battery life such as capacity rate (C-rate), depth of discharge (DoD), and temperature rise due to PL by controlling the operating modes of the BDCs in which voltage of the UC and state of charge (SoC) of the battery are control variables. A constant output voltage across the load is maintained through feedback control. A detailed comparative analysis, among battery-alone, UCalone, and battery-UC hybrid modes is performed which signifies that the proposed system is 55% lower in cost than its counterparts. The analysis shows that the proposed HESS reduces 50% capacity of a lead-acid battery, which is otherwise necessary to withstand the pulsating loads. Moreover, the performance of the HESS is also tested for electric vehicle (EV) load by hybridizing a high-voltage lithium-ion battery pack with a UC bank which confirms its suitability for EV applications.INDEX TERMS pulsed load, battery life improvement, ultracapacitors (UCs), bidirectional converter, hybrid energy storage system (HESS), and electric vehicles (EVs).

“…Future power systems would face the problem of an enlarged energy imbalance gap and declined inertia stability due to 'dual-high' characteristics, namely, the high penetration of intermittent renewable energy (RE) and a high proportion of power electronics with low inertia [1][2][3]. With the rapid development of electric vehicles (EVs), more and more attention has been given to the potential of the massive amount of EV batteries functioning as distributed energy storage through vehicle-to-grid (V2G) integration [4][5][6][7].…”

Lithium-ion batteries on electric vehicles have been increasingly deployed for the enhancement of grid reliability and integration of renewable energy, while users are concerned about extra battery degradation caused by vehicle-to-grid (V2G) operations. This paper details a multi-year cycling study of commercial 24 Ah pouch batteries with Li(NiMnCo)O2 (NCM) cathode, varying the average state of charge (SOC), depth of discharge (DOD), and charging rate by 33 groups of experiment matrix. Based on the reduced freedom voltage parameter reconstruction (RF-VPR), a more efficient non-intrusive diagnosis is combined with incremental capacity (IC) analysis to evaluate the aging mechanisms including loss of lithium-ion inventory and loss of active material on the cathode and anode. By analyzing the evolution of indicator parameters and the cumulative degradation function (CDF) of the battery capacity, a non-linear degradation model with calendar and cyclic aging is established to evaluate the battery aging cost under different unmanaged charging (V0G) and V2G scenarios. The result shows that, although the extra energy throughput would cause cyclic degradation, discharging from SOC 90 to 65% by V2G will surprisingly alleviate the battery decaying by 0.95% compared to the EV charged within 90–100% SOC, due to the improvement of calendar life. By optimal charging strategies, the connection to the smart grid can potentially extend the EV battery life beyond the scenarios without V2G.
