Architecture of battery swapping station . When compared to the other electric vehicle charging techniques, the battery swap station is a quick and efficient way that enables the customer to continue driving without being distracted. To connecting to the grid, BSSs have a bidirectional flow of power.
The battery swapping operation is modeled by Eqs. (3.36) and (3.37). In the battery swapping operation, the fully charged battery in the station is replaced with a depleted battery of an electric vehicle which arrives at the station. At the time of battery swapping, the fully charged battery is replaced with an empty battery.
The swapping station starts preparing the battery for replacement. Once, the vehicle reaches the swapping station, the user card is verified with battery specification and allowed the vehicle to battery swap. The swapping of the battery takes place with the help of a robotic arm without any delay.
For a successful battery-swapping station, there should be continuous communication between electric vehicles, information systems, and battery-swapping stations. Table 11. Classification of battery swapping.
Meanwhile, the issue of energy supply for New Energy Vehicles (all-electric cars, plug-in hybrids, and hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles) is becoming more pressing. All parties concerned pursue the goal of resolving the issue of energy replenishment for electric vehicles safely, easily and smartly. The battery swapping station is a good solution.
The defined binary variable by Eq. (3.30) is to confirm such an operation . The stored energy of every battery inside the battery swapping station is calculated by Eq. (3.33) and the efficiency and rated capacity of each battery is denoted by Eqs. (3.34) and (3.35), respectively.
