Rapid Charger for Electric Vehicles based on independent secnd-life lithium battery modules: Enabling technology for smart charging management and flexible use of electrical infrastructure - 2023/2025

Develop and experimentally validate a prototype electric vehicle charger that is scalable in power, with second-life storage capacity, made up of 6 independent modules connected by a communication bus and controlled by a real-time distributed predictive control formulation for charging electric vehicles using power from the electrical grid, their internal batteries, or a combination of both.

IDeA I+D 2023 Contest.
