A Semi Empirical Approach to a Physically Based Aging Model for Home Energy Management Systems (2206.06158v1)

Abstract: A growing interest in the study of aging related phenomena in lithium-ion batteries is propelled by the increasing utilization of energy storage systems in electric vehicles and in buildings as stationery energy accumulators paired with renewable energy sources. This paper proposes a mixed-degradation model approach that combines the benefits of a semi-empirical approach with that of a physics-based model. This enables easy calibration for different battery chemistries, the ability to extrapolate when necessary, and is computationally efficient enough to be coupled with real-time running control systems. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, the effect of two different control strategies in a smart home energy management system is demonstrated on the aging of a Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery.
