Abstract

Battery energy systems for stationary storages as well as for electric vehicles that are based on lithium-ion batteries are widely regarded as one of the key technologies to realize the energy transition A determined shift could mitigate the most severe aspects of climate change so that in recent years the research on battery materials, modelling, ageing, systems and integration has been thriving . Yet, amongst others, a lot of open questions remain in the field of diagnosing batteries connected to power electronics in practical conversion systems although they are already comprehensively used in stationary systems and electric vehicles alike. Batteries, connected to power electronics that play a vital role in stabilising voltage quality and power delivery have been considered for many years as an important part of so called microgrids that could be a method to secure the energy supply in power grids with highly distributed feed-ins . Moreover, as electric vehicles will have spread extensively, their battery packs are considered to be used to buffer peaks in power demand or dips in power supply in vehicle to grid systems thus demanding sophisticated charging and discharging systems that are based on various power electronic circuits . In summary, every battery in battery energy systems is in some way connected to power electronics, especially DC/DC-converters. They are based on controlling semiconducting, transistor-based high frequency switches to modulate the desired voltage or current respectively.

Introduction

The cells would be under severe high frequency switching stress. High frequency current waves, called ’current ripple’, would be induced on the batteries and could lead to battery ageing mechanisms that are still unknown or render known ageing mechanisms more severe. If the results showed no further influence and therefore implied that current ripple does not shorten the battery life, the results could still lead to improvements in the design of battery energy systems as filters that are normally used to even out ripple, e.g., in , could be reduced in size or even be omitted. It is expected that the severity of current ripple rises with future converters that are based on silicon carbide (SiC) that operate at very high frequencies of several tens or even hundreds of kilohertz. However, the common usage of switching frequencies considerably higher than a few kilohertz are not expected to excite electrochemical reactions thus high frequency current ripple is not expected to have any severe impact on battery ageing just as it is suggested by the following overview.
