Abstract

© 2024 IEEE.Battery degradation causes several adverse effects including reduced driving range and increased charging time. This affects the scheduling of Electric Vehicles (EVs) and Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) after few cycles of the battery usage in the grid. In this paper, a battery degradation model is adopted and various factors contributing to degradation were analyzed. In this model the effect of starting SoC (State of Charge) is also considered for better accuracy. The Capacity fade of batteries in different type of vehicles (Car, Bus, Truck) and BESS of various capacities is studied for various factors. Also, the optimal factors to reduce the degradation is studied. The temperature of the battery plays a crucial role in degradation. Higher C-rates accelerates the degradation. In addition, the starting SoC when under 50% also reduces the battery life. Simulation of vehicle batteries under various factors shows that higher battery capacity vehicles (bus in this case) degrades in less number of cycles. This can significantly impact the scheduling of EVs. The adopted model is compared with a data-fitting model of the same type. Results shows that there is 1% difference in lower and 2% higher C-rates respectively.
