Abstract

Modern battery technologies play a key role in ensuring sustainable energy, electric vehicles and backup power supply. However, limited-service life, tendency to overheat, vulnerability to overcharging and other stress factors significantly reduce the reliability and cost-effectiveness of such systems. This paper presents engineering and materials science approaches to extending the service life of batteries by optimizing their thermal and electrical modes, as well as integrating intelligent control systems. In addition, a model for assessing the total cost of ownership (TCO) is proposed, taking into account the impact of the battery life cycle on user costs. The results demonstrate that the implementation of improved designs and control algorithms can significantly improve battery sustainability while reducing operating costs.
