Description du projet
Un coup de pouce pour une alternative rechargeable aux carburants fossiles
La batterie lithium-ion, la plus utilisée pour les véhicules électrifiés, est rechargeable, mais à une vitesse très faible par rapport au remplissage du réservoir d’essence des véhicules à moteur à combustion interne. Il est essentiel de faire progresser la technologie de recharge rapide des batteries lithium-ion afin d’ouvrir la voie à une alternative durable pour un système de transport exempt de combustibles fossiles. Le projet BatCon, financé par l’UE, permettra de franchir une nouvelle étape dans la recherche et l’innovation concernant la gestion de la charge des batteries. Il s’appuiera en particulier sur une modélisation mathématique avancée, une estimation d’état robuste et des cadres de contrôle complets pour permettre une charge plus rapide et une durée de vie plus longue de la batterie. Globalement, le projet contribuera à l’adoption future d’approches efficaces en termes de coûts et de ressources ainsi qu’à l’aspect pratique des appareils alimentés par batterie.
Objectif
Meeting the European industrial and political ambition of making the transport sector free of fossil fuel in the near future depends heavily on continued advancement of battery technology. Safe and optimal use of battery systems is crucial but difficult due to the lack of accurate internal state information and optimal battery control algorithms. This project aims to make step changes in research and innovation of battery management by developing health-aware fast charging strategies as well as realise an advanced career development for the experienced researcher using a clearly defined training-through-research approach. The proposed battery charging management will benefit from and integrate advanced mathematical modelling, robust state estimation and a holistic control framework within this project, along with several on-going battery energy management projects at Chalmers University of Technology. The research outcomes will include faster charging capability and prolonged lifetime for batteries on the premise of a safety guarantee, which will significantly improve the cost and resource efficiency and the convenience of battery powered devices. The hosting research group at Chalmers has a reputation for working closely with industry (e.g. Volvo Cars, Volvo Group and ABB) and applying their research to real world problems, therefore maximising the opportunity for the results to be commercially implemented in the shortest possible time. Ultimately, this project will contribute to UN Sustainable Development Goals in terms of “Affordable and clean energy” and “Sustainable cities and communities.” Furthermore, this fellowship will provide an excellent opportunity for the experienced researcher to advance the career training and secure a leading independent position at the end of the fellowship.
