A Review on the Battery Balancing and Reconfiguration Methods

open access: yesDEStech Transactions on Environment, Energy and Earth Sciences, 2019
With the development of electric vehicles, battery cells are connected in serial/parallel to cope the energy and power demand. In such serial connected battery strings, the battery imbalance is inevitable. Battery balancing and reconfiguration methods are considered as the most important methods to keep the battery string in better performance.
