Systems, methods, and devices are provided for estimating a state-of-health (SOH) in an energy storage system, where the estimate accounts for both power fade and capacity fade. The SOH estimation system comprises a SOH estimation module configured to receive, and to determine the estimate of the SOH based on: a nominal capacity input; a voltage input; a current input; a nominal open circuit voltage curve; an operational resistance model; a nominal resistance model; an operational dynamic model; and a rated discharge current. The SOH estimation module may further comprise a SOH aggregation module configured to receive a power rating estimate, PR, and a normalized capacity estimate, NC, and may be configured to determine the estimate of the SOH based on the power rating estimate, PR, and the normalized capacity estimate, NC.

Systems, methods, and devices for state-of-health estimation in energy storage systems

Systems, methods, and devices are provided for estimating a state-of-charge in an energy storage system. The systems, methods, and devices may measure a current and a voltage related to the energy storage system, generate a model-based state-of-charge estimate based thereon, generate an aggregated state-of-charge estimate based on the model-based state-of-charge estimate, generate an adaptation current based on the measured current, aggregated state-of-charge estimate, and the adaptive state-of-charge estimate, and update the adaptive state-of-charge estimate based on the measured current and the adaptation current. The systems, methods, and devices may also provide a tracking indication whether the adaptive state-of-charge estimate is tracking between upper and lower confidence limits.

Systems, methods, and devices for state-of-charge estimation in energy storage systems

A battery management system is provided that controls at least a stack of battery cells. The battery management system may detect stack voltage and current. Characteristics of each battery cell in the stack may be monitored. The battery management system may detect ground fault within the stack of battery cells. Communication breakdown and/or failure in the battery management system may also be detected.
