Abstract

Enhancing ultra-capacitor (UC) utilization and mitigating battery stress are pivotal for improving the energy management efficiency and service life of hybrid energy storage systems (HESSs). Conventional energy management strategies (EMSs), however, rely on fixed parameters and therefore struggle to allocate power flexibly or reduce battery degradation. This paper proposes a VMD-LSTM-based EMS that incorporates auto-tuning weight and constraint to address these limitations. First, a VMD-LSTM predictor was proposed to improve the velocity and road gradient prediction accuracy, thus leading an accurate power demand for EMS and enabling real-time parameter adaptation, especially in the nonlinear area. Second, the model predictive controller (MPC) was adopted to construct the EMS by solving a multi-objective problem using quadratic programming. Third, a combination of rule-based and fuzzy logic-based strategies was introduced to adjust the weights and constraints, optimizing UC utilization while alleviating the burden on batteries. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme boosts UC utilization by 10.98% and extends battery life by 19.75% compared to traditional MPC. These gains underscore the practical viability of intelligent, optimizing EMSs for HESSs.
