In modern energy technology, the reuse of used batteries from electric vehicles - so-called 2nd-life batteries - is becoming increasingly important in order to promote sustainability and economic efficiency. A key component for the efficient use of these batteries in stationary energy storage systems is the bidirectional DC-DC converter. In this presentation, a converter concept is presented that makes it possible to connect several batteries with different chemical properties, capacities and voltage levels to a common DC bus.
The bidirectional DC-DC converter not only ensures the equalization of the different battery states, but also allows an efficient energy exchange between the batteries and the DC bus by controlling both charging and discharging processes.
This technology offers the potential to reuse used batteries in a resource-saving manner and at the same time support the energy transition with cost-effective and environmentally friendly storage solutions.
