MIXED BATTERY ARRAY ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM

Abstract

This research proposes and studies aspects of a mixed battery array composed of used electric vehicle batteries repurposed into a second life in both a theoretical and experimental fashion. The research seeks to address five key objectives. Battery pack performance analysis and battery pack grouping, battery pack interconnection comparison between the DC-couple and AC-couple power conversion system, battery management system component comparison between original equipment manufacturer and third-party equipment, energy management system integration, and battery thermal management system comparison.
