SOC Estimation Accuracy

A collection of pages and notes on claimed State of Charge (SOC) estimation accuracy for different chemistries and applications.

LFP BESS

Sungrow [1] state <3% SOC estimation error: Leveraging Sungrow’s AC-DC integration, PowerTitan 3.0 assigns one PCS per rack to eliminate the SOC unbalance between the racks. With an SOC estimation error of <3% and automated calibration, balancing extends across rack and block levels. This innovation enables up to 8% more discharged energy across the system’s lifecycle, maximizing operator returns.

SoC accuracy

Impact of SOC Estimation Error on the operation of the battery:

  • incorrect remaining energy
  • poorly balanced cells
  • reduced charge and discharge power
  • reduced lifetime
  • operation outside of safe working limits
