Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems and methods for energy management. A system, such as a vehicle, includes power packs and a photovoltaic array with interconnected photovoltaic cells that supplies electric charge to the power packs for charging the power packs. A charge management database stores data tracking respective charge cycles of the power packs based on the charging and discharging of the power packs. An energy control system controls flow of power in the system to control the charging and the discharging of the power packs, optimizes the flow of power in the system based on the respective charge cycles as tracked in the data stored in the charge management database, and updates the charge management database based on the optimization(s). An output interface outputs a status of the power packs based on the flow of power, for instance to indicate effect(s) of the optimization(s) on the power packs.
