Nowadays, lithium-ion battery has become more popular around the world. Knowing when batteries reach their end of life (EOL) is crucial. Accurately predicting the remaining useful life (RUL) of lithium-ion batteries is needed for battery health management systems and to avoid unexpected accidents. It gives information about the battery status and when we should replace the battery. With the rapid growth of machine learning and deep learning, data-driven approaches are proposed to address this problem. Extracting aging information from battery charge/discharge records, including voltage, current, and temperature, can determine the battery state and predict battery RUL. In this work, we first outlined the charging and discharging processes of lithium-ion batteries. We then summarize the proposed techniques and achievements in all published data-driven RUL prediction studies. From that, we give a discussion about the accomplishments and remaining works with the corresponding challenges in order to provide a direction for further research in this area.

The electricity demand and supply could be off balance if several electric vehicles(EVs) were charged at the same time or at peak load times. Therefore, smart grids are necessary to flatten the EVs' electricity demand and to enable EVs to be used as distributed storage devices as electricity demand from EV-charging increases. There are still few quantitative studies on the impact of smart grids on managing EVs' electrical loads. In this study, we analyzed the quantitative impact of smart grids on managing EVs' electrical loads and suggested policy implications. As a result, it is identified that smart grids can manage effectively EVs' impact on electrical grids. The electricity market structure and regulatory framework should support the demonstration and commercialization of smart grid technologies.

Grid-connected bidirectional PCS(Power Conditioning System) technology is a technology for implementing distributed renewable energy smart grid. And it is always charged by using power collected from solar modules and commercial grid power among vast smart grid systems, and stored when needed.It is a hybrid energy storage device that allows power to be released into the low voltage system. To this end, a PV input power converter with MPPT function, a bidirectional power converter for battery charging and discharging, and a DC Link input are output to a 3 phase 380V AC system, and if nessary, the bidirectional DC/DC converter We designed and developed a PCS with three power converter structures composed of inverters that perform battery charging. Currently, this system is applied to the site of Jeju, which is vulnerable to power outages and fire accidents.

Recently, the need to prevent battery fires and accidents has emerged, as the use of lithium-ion batteries has increased. In order to prevent accidents, it is necessary to predict the state of health (SOH) and check the replacement timing of the battery with a lot of degradation. This paper proposes a model for predicting the degradation state of a battery by using four battery degradation indicators: maximum voltage arrival time, current change time, maximum temperature arrival time, and incremental capacity (IC) that can be obtained in the battery charging process, and LSTM using an attention mechanism. The performance of the proposed model was measured using the NASA battery data set, and the predictive performance was improved compared to that of the general LSTM model, especially in the SOH 90-70% section, which is close to the battery replacement cycle.

Recently, various researches and projects about electric vehicles are in progress vigorously and continuously and it is expected to penetrate rapidly with the next a few years. This deployment will cause the change of load composition rate affecting on power system planning and operations. Therefore, a new load model should be developed integrating with electric vehicle loads. In this paper, the load composition rate of residential sectors is analyzed considering the deployment of this mobility load such as electric vehicles and a new diffusion model is proposed based on the classification of the replacement patterns. Additionally, electric vehicle charging loads are basically modeled by some individual load experiments to develop new load models for smart place and some new conceptual power systems such as micro grids.

This study introduces a new topology to decrease the voltage stress experienced by a 13.56 MHz electrical variable capacitor (EVC) circuit with an asymmetrical switch structure applied to the impedance matching circuit of a radio frequency (RF) plasma system. The method adopts a symmetrical switch structure instead of an asymmetrical one in each of the capacitor's leg in the EVC circuit. The proposed topology successfully reduces voltage stress in the EVC circuit due to the symmetrical charging and discharging mode. This topology can also be applied to the impedance matching circuit of a high-power and high-frequency RF etching system. The target features of the proposed circuit topology are investigated via simulation and experiment. Voltage stress on the switch of the EVC circuit is successfully reduced by more than 40%.

Utilization of Electric Vehicles (EVs) have been growing popularity in recent years due to increment in fuel price and lack of natural resources. Random unexpected charging by home EV charger in distribution is predicted in the future. The power quality problems such as fluctuation of power factor in a residential distribution network was explored with random EV chargers. This paper proposes a high-performance nonlinear sliding mode controller (SMC) for an EV charging system to compensate voltage distortions and to enhance the power factor against the unbalanced EV chargers. For the verification of the proposed scheme, MATLAB-Simulink simulations are performed on 22.9-kV grid. The results show that the proposed scheme can improve the power factor of a smart grid due to the EV chargers on the grid.

In this paper, we proposed Interference suppression method of between AMI system and EV charging system. IEC12139-1 and HomePlug GreenPhy are using 2-30Mhz frequency band in power line communication. Both method while using the same frequency band, interference occurs in the system of each other. In this paper, we experiment a way to suppress the interference through the channel separation using a Walsh code.
