The battery pack accounts for a large share of an electric vehicle cost. In this context, making sure that the battery pack life matches the lifetime of the vehicle is critical. The present work proposes a battery aging management framework which is capable of controlling the battery capacity degradation while guaranteeing acceptable vehicle performance in terms of driving range, recharge time, and drivability. The strategy acts on the maximum battery current, and on the depth of discharge. The formalization of the battery management issue leads to a multi-objective, multi-input optimization problem for which we propose an online solution. The algorithm, given the current battery residual capacity and a prediction of the driver's behavior, iteratively selects the best control variables over a suitable control discretization step. We show that the best aging strategy depends on the driving style. The strategy is thus made adaptive by including a self-learnt, Markov-chain-based driving style model in the optimization routine. Extensive simulations demonstrate the advantages of the proposed strategy against a trivial strategy and an offline benchmark policy over a life of 200 000 (km).
