Abstract
Systems and methods for cooling an electric energy storage device of an electric vehicle are described. In one example, a temperature of a traction battery is predicted and an opportunity assessment is generated, where the opportunity assessment is based on the temperature of the traction battery being predicted to exceed a threshold temperature, where the temperature of the traction battery is predicted prior to a traction battery DC fast charging event, and where the temperature of the traction battery based on time and a segment of a travel route.
