    Influence of renewable power fluctuations on the lifetime prediction of lithium-ion batteries in a microgrid environment
    (IEEE, 2019) Soto Cabria, Adrián; Berrueta Irigoyen, Alberto; Sanchis Gúrpide, Pablo; Ursúa Rubio, Alfredo; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako Gobernua
    This contribution analyses lifetime estimation errors due to the effect of power fluctuations in lithium-ion batteries connected to microgrids when different time steps are used for the calculations. Usually, not every second data are available or the computational cost is excessively high. Those facts result in the use of larger time steps. However, the increase of the time steps may turn out in too optimistic predictions. Data from a real microgrid make it possible to optimize calculation times while keeping low errors. The results show that when 1 minute time step is set, the computation time is reduced by 14.4 times while the lifetime overstatement is only 3.5-5.2% higher, depending on the aging model.

    Analysis of the main battery characterization techniques and experimental comparison of commercial 18650 Li-ion cells
    (IEEE, 2019) Soto Cabria, Adrián; Berrueta Irigoyen, Alberto; Sanchis Gúrpide, Pablo; Ursúa Rubio, Alfredo; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako Gobernua
    Over the coming years, major growth in the use of Li-ion batteries is expected, both in electric mobility as well as in stationary applications, be it in self-consumption systems and micro grids or in large renewable power generation plants. The proper characterization of lithium-ion cells is of vital importance for the development of precise models that permit the simulation and prediction of their behavior, so as to suitably configure cell groupings for the resulting battery packs, and to properly select the most suitable cells from the extensive manufacturer offer. In this work, an analysis is conducted of the main techniques used in the literature to characterize batteries. Also, an experimental comparative is carried out on 18650 Liion cells from three large global manufacturers, focusing on the primary methodologies used to characterize capacity, internal resistance and open circuit voltage. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages are presented for the methodologies used, based on the experimental results obtained.
