Abstract

This study investigates the effect of 50-kW (about 2C) direct current fast charging on a full-size battery electric vehicle's battery pack in comparison to a pack exclusively charged at 3.3 kW, which is the common alternating current Level 2 charging power level. Comparable scaled charging protocols are also independently applied to individual cells at three different temperatures, 20 °C, 30 °C, and 40 °C, to perform a comparative analysis with the packs. Dominant cell-level aging modes were identified through incremental capacity analysis and compared with full packs to gain a clear understanding of additional key factors that affect pack aging. While the cell-level study showed a minor impact on performance due to direct current fast charging, the packs showed a significantly higher rate of capacity fade under similar charging protocols. This indicates that pack-level aging cannot be directly extrapolated from cell evaluation. With this being said, delayed fast charging, completing shortly before discharge, was found to have less of an impact on battery degradation than conventional alternating current Level 2 charging

The implications of fast charge in lithium ion battery performance and life: cell vs. pack

This study investigates the effect of 50-kW (about 2C) direct current fast charging on a full-size battery electric vehicle's battery pack in comparison to a pack exclusively charged at 3.3?kW, which is the common alternating current Level 2 charging power level. Comparable scaled charging protocols are also independently applied to individual cells at three different temperatures, 20?°C, 30?°C, and 40?°C, to perform a comparative analysis with the packs.

Extreme Fast Charging of Lithium-Ion Battery: Understanding Bottlenecks and Safety Issues

Conference Tanim, Tanvir R ; Dufek, Eric J ; Evans, Michael C ; ...

Currently, graphite-based lithium-ion battery (LIB) packs in the electric vehicle (EV) domain can accommodate a charging rate up to 2C, which translates into a 0.5 to 1h recharge time [1-2]. Reducing the recharge time down to 10-15 min range would reduce the gap between the internal combustion engine’s refueling time and EV’s recharge time. Minimizing this gap is seen as attractive to consumers and would eventually enhance the adoption of EVs [1-3]. Significant research activity has been going on globally to understand the scientific limitations associated with high rate charging [4-6]. Extreme fast charging (XFC) of Li-ion batteries can createmore »« less

Life Prediction of Large Lithium-Ion Battery Packs with Active and Passive Balancing

Conference Shi, Ying ; Smith, Kandler A ; Zane, Regan ; ...

Lithium-ion battery packs take a major part of large-scale stationary energy storage systems. One challenge in reducing battery pack cost is to reduce pack size without compromising pack service performance and lifespan. Prognostic life model can be a powerful tool to handle the state of health (SOH) estimate and enable active life balancing strategy to reduce cell imbalance and extend pack life. This work proposed a life model using both empirical and physical-based approaches. The life model described the compounding effect of different degradations on the entire cell with an empirical model. Then its lower-level submodels considered the complex physicalmore »« less

Impact of Fast Charging on Life of EV Batteries; NREL (National Renewable Energy Laboratory)

Conference Neubauer, Jeremy ; Wood, Eric ; Burton, Evan ; ...

Installation of fast charging infrastructure is considered by many as one of potential solutions to increase the utility and range of electric vehicles (EVs). This is expected to reduce the range anxiety of drivers of EVs and thus increase their market penetration. Level 1 and 2 charging in homes and workplaces is expected to contribute to the majority of miles driven by EVs. However, a small percentage of urban driving and most of inter-city driving could be only achieved by a fast-charging network. DC fast charging at 50 kW, 100 kW, 120 kW compared to level 1 (3.3 kW) andmore »« less

Enabling Fast Charging: A Technology Gap Assessment

Technical Report Michelbacher, Christopher J. ; Ahmed, Shabbir ; Bloom, Ira ; ...

The transportation sector accounts for the largest percentage of energy use in the United States. Decreasing energy consumption across this sector, especially in commercial light duty transportation, is essential for the U.S. to gain energy independence. Recently, powertrain electrification with plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) have gained traction as an alternative due to their inherent efficiency advantages compared to the traditional internal combustion engine vehicle (ICEV). Accounting for 500,000 vehicle on the road today, these PEVs will reduce oil imported into the U.S. by five billion gallons and save two billion dollars in fuel costs to consumers over their useful life.more »« less
