Energy storage management in electric vehicles
Key points Energy storage management is essential for increasing the range and eficiency of electric vehicles (EVs), to increase their lifetime and to reduce their energy demands.
View DetailsFuel cells are another form of electric vehicle energy storage system used in electric vehicles, they make use of hydrogen gas which is converted to mechanical energy by burning hydrogen with oxygen in an internal combustion engine to produce electricity that can be used to power an electric motor.
The success of electric vehicles depends upon their Energy Storage Systems. The Energy Storage System can be a Fuel Cell, Supercapacitor, or battery. Each system has its advantages and disadvantages. A fuel cell works as an electrochemical cell that generates electricity for driving vehicles.
The following energy storage systems are used in all-electric vehicles, PHEVs, and HEVs. Lithium-ion batteries are currently used in most portable consumer electronics such as cell phones and laptops because of their high energy per unit mass and volume relative to other electrical energy storage systems.
Electric vehicle batteries are advanced portable energy storage systems comprising electrochemical cells that include an anode, cathode, and electrolyte. These components work together to efficiently convert stored chemical energy into electrical energy, delivering high performance with zero gas emissions, thereby minimizing environmental impact.
The various operational parameters of the fuel-cell, ultracapacitor, and flywheel storage systems used to power EVs are discussed and investigated. Finally, radar based specified technique is employed to investigate the operating parameters among batteries to conclude the optimal storage solution in electric mobility.
A number of scholarly articles of superior quality have been published recently, addressing various energy storage systems for electric mobility including lithium-ion battery, FC, flywheel, lithium-sulfur battery, compressed air storage, hybridization of battery with SCs and FC, , , , , , , .
