VEHICLE BATTERY SMART RANGE ESTIMATION AND REMOVABLE BATTERY CELL STORAGE OPTIMIZATION

A battery system that, based upon the state of charge (SOC), state of health (SOH), and discharge profile of a battery module, or removable cells of the battery module, apprises the user of optimal or allowable storage temperature and time before the charge and range of a fully charged battery module or removable cell is degraded. In the event that this optimal or allowable storage temperature or time is deviated from or exceeded, the battery system recalculates the necessary charging power and time to meet the original range calculation and satisfy original trip requirements. This may be utilized for cells stored both in the vehicle and cells stored remote from the vehicle.
