State of Health - SOH Evaluation

SOH Evaluation

  • First, a battery management system evaluates the SOH of the battery under its management and reports it.
  • Then, the SOH is compared to a threshold (typically done by the application in which the battery is used), to determine the suitability of the battery to a given application.

Knowing the SOH of a given battery and the SOH threshold of a given application:

  • a determination can be made whether the present battery conditions make it suitable for that application
  • an estimate can be made of the battery's useful lifetime in that application
