Cell Balancing Whitepaper

How Nuvation Energy’s Battery Management Systems Perform Cell Balancing

This whitepaper describes how Nuvation Energy’s battery management systems perform cell balancing in lithium-ion and other battery chemistries. We will also explore how cell balancing can be simulated in software, and the benefits of simulation. This paper will:

  • Define cell balancing and explore the causes of imbalance in series-connected cells.
  • Describe how Nuvation Energy’s battery management systems perform cell balancing.
  • Present Nuvation Energy’s balancing simulation framework.

Battery Management for Large-Scale Energy Storage (Part 3)

In part 3 we explore the difference between configuring a BMS for battery-level vs system-level operating parameters. We explain cell balancing, and put a lense on communications between the BMS and other controllers in the ESS.

Battery Management for Large-Scale Energy Storage (Part 4)

In this final installment of the series we will put State of Charge (SoC) and Depth of Discharge (DoD) under the microscope. We'll also look at lead-acid battery management, and explore the concept of optimizing for cycle-count vs duration.
