Design and Construction of Multiple Power Supply System Using Lithium Ion

This paper introduces a novel configuration by integrating the lithium battery technology (Lithium Iron Phosphate) in the Multi-Source Power Systems in order to optimize the global cost of a hybrid installation, and to protect the environment. In addition, the developmemts and evaluations of the performance of the battery bank used in the Multi-Source Power System are highlighted. Thus, a lifetime comparison between Lithium Iron Phosphate and lead-acid batteries over twenty- five years has been performed. Moreover, the aging rate of the battery banks has been calenlaied based on a dynamic simulation model developed in Matlab-Simulink with a real meteorological database and a consumption profile of one year. By using the sensitivity analysis the optimal configuration of the hybridpower system is defined. In order to evaluate the variation of the battery agingrate, mathematical models describing the cycle number in function of Depth-of-Discharge ure considered. The obtained simulation results based on themathematical models show thai the aging rate of the lead-actd batteries is at leastten times more than Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries: In fact, one pack of lithium battery can xuppori a consumption load profile over twenty-five years without anyreplacement. However, the use of lead-acid battery requires up to 7 replacements with high maintenance costs.
