Abstract

The aging behaviour of lithium-ion batteries is studied to develop an aging prediction model for the capacity loss of batteries in full electric ships. This model is used to investigate the effects of battery aging on the battery size and operational strategies of two case studies, a full electric ferry and a full electric tug.
