Bidirectional DC-DC power converters, Screening system, Retired batteriesAbstract
With the rapid expansion of energy storage technologies, the concept of the second-life battery has become a central element in sustainability and energy efficiency efforts. This innovative approach refers to the further use of batteries, which have reached the end of life, integrating them into applications with lower energy requirements than those in the automotive industry. The batteries must first be evaluated using a screening system that contains a power converter to apply different test profiles and a measurement and control circuit. This article outlines key performance considerations of bidirectional DC-DC power converter topologies and compares them using multi-criteria analysis to determine which design is more suitable for screening systems. The chosen power converters are further studied in the LTspice program for a detailed comparison based on the obtained results.
