Reliability of the battery plug-in system

In this paper, we propose a reliability model for the battery-exchange based EVs (BEVs) with a time-series aggregated EV user load profile. The operation strategy for a battery exchange station is formulated, which accounts for the intermittency of renewable resources. A random-sampling approach is implemented to develop an hourly plug-in EV ...

How reliable is a battery system?

The assessment results show that the reliability of the entire battery system is lower than that of individual components, including battery modules. The entire system degrades more rapidly over time compared to the degradation of individual components.

How to determine the reliability of a battery system?

Determining the reliability of an electric vehicle battery system should be based on the consideration of the reliability of all battery system components, not just the reliability of battery cells and battery modules. Overlooking the reliability of other components could lead to an overestimation of the entire battery system's reliability.

Do degrading conditions affect reliability indicators over a battery's lifespan?

Besides, the influence of degrading circumstances on reliability indicators over the battery’s lifespan, such as a high C-rate at a low temperature throughout the battery's lifetime, has been presented in a comprehensive investigated case study in this work. 1. Introduction

How reliable is a battery at 10 °C?

In other words, the reliability of the battery at 10 °C under standard charge–discharge test protocols is less than under other degradation conditions. Considering the trend of events in risk analysis, in this case, it has been expected that the operating of the batteries at 25° and 10° will become less reliable over time. 4.2.

Are EV batteries reliable?

The reliability of EV batteries has been greatly improved by various studies, including those on vehicle-to-grid (V2G) and grid-to-vehicle (G2V) strategies. Despite these advancements, the battery system in an EV is a complex system. All these studies have contributed to enhancing the reliability of EV batteries.

What is the reliability index of a battery system?

The reliability index of a battery system after running for 2,000 hours is 98.1%, 5,000 hours is 95.3%, 10,000 hours is 90.9%, 15,000 hours is 86.7%, and 20,000 hours is 82.6%. It is interestingly found that the degradation is dominated mainly by the BMS controller rather than by battery cells and battery modules.
