Resumen:
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are fre-quently utilized to support the power grid. Second-Life batteries (SLBs) are considered as a potential solution to reduce the cost of BESS in stationary applications. However, using SLBs has certain challenges due to the non-uniform State-of-Charge (SOC) and State-of-Health (SOH) among the battery modules. This study examines two control strategies for a cascaded H-bridge (CHB) topology used for BESS applications. The possibilities for flexible control of the BESS are enabled by employing a CHB topology. By utilizing the CHB topology, each battery module can be individually charged and discharged. Two battery energy management system (BEMS) techniques are proposed based on the batteries' State-of-Energy (SOE): 1) continuous and 2) discrete balancing techniques. The experimental tests demonstrate the advantages of the proposed solutions in terms of individual balancing control when being applied to SLB.
