Abstract
Apparatus, method, media and signals for controlling energy transfer between an energy bus and a system of batteries, in which a control signal generator operable to receive an extreme voltage representation representing a voltage of a battery exhibiting an extreme voltage among voltages of all batteries in the system, and a representation of a reference voltage derived from an operating parameter associated with the battery exhibiting the extreme voltage, is operable to produce a control signal for use in changing the amount of energy transfer between the energy bus and the system in response to the aforementioned representations.
