Abstract
Battery energy storage (BES) systems are vital in the enhancement of sustainability, performance and reliability in today’s power systems particularly for Backup Power Systems (BES), electric vehicles (EV) and for requiring renewable energy integration. This paper presents the development/evaluation of an ESP32-based smart battery energy storage and health monitoring system with remote access and real time monitoring capabilities. The proposed system uses the appropriate sensors and data collection/monitoring methods to provide continuous monitoring of critical battery parameters i.e. Voltage, Current, Temperature and State of Charge (SOC). The results of experiments proved the system operated as expected under the following parameters: A safe working voltage range for the batteries was maintained (12.1–12.8 V) the maximum allowed charging rate of the batteries was approximately +5 A; overcharging and discharging current rates were managed within acceptable limits. Additionally, accurate tracking of SOC confirmed that energy estimates were reliable, with remarkably consistent and almost linear fluctuations of approximately 5% to 7% during the regulated charging/discharge cycles. The system also identified risk factors such as Deep Discharge (below 40% SOC), Overcharging (above 85% to 90% SOC) and Excessive Rise in Temperature (above 45°C); therefore, the system enabled prompt preventive action to mitigate potential battery deterioration and failure. Due to the low power consumption, built-in Wi-Fi capability and cost-effectiveness of the ESP32, the system is suitable for scalable and remote deployment.
Modern energy storage systems depend on Battery Management Systems (BMS) to be safe, effective and long-lasting. In order to improve battery performance and reliability, this paper integrate a Smart BMS with Phase Change Material (PCM) Cooling Technique and Predictive Maintenance. For real-time monitoring and control, the system uses a number of sensors, including temperature, voltage, current and flame sensors, which are connected to an Arduino Uno and an ESP32-based Internet of Things module. Sensor data is analyzed to anticipate any malfunctions, allowing for proactive maintenance and preventing unplanned downtime. By efficiently controlling battery temperature, PCM cooling method reduces thermal runaway and lengthens battery life. Real-time warnings and remote monitoring are made possible by IoT architecture through a web or mobile interface. Improved safety, operational effectiveness and battery lifespan are demonstrated by experimental evaluation, which makes this strategy a viable option for cutting-edge energy storage applications.

The design and implementation of battery management system (BMS) is presented in this paper, this BMS is for solar photovoltaic applications. The layout employs a microcontroller-based monitoring unit, a lithium-ion battery, and a DC-DC converter to ensure the battery's safety and to maximize the energy available. The proposed BMS monitors key battery metrics such as voltage, current, temperature, state of charge (SOC), and state of health (SOH). To improve the efficiency of the solar panel, a perturb and observe (P&O) based MPPT method is used so that maximum power can be extracted under different conditions and the battery can be charged more effectively. The system performance was checked using both simulation and hardware setup. From the results, it can be observed that the DC link voltage remains nearly constant and the output voltage is properly maintained. Also, the state of charge (SOC) increases gradually as the battery charges. The hardware prototype further shows that the system works properly under real-time conditions. In addition, a GSM module is included for real-time monitoring and to send alerts whenever any abnormal condition occurs. Overall, this work shows that the system can be used as a low-cost and practical solution for battery management in solar applications.

The rapid growth of electric vehicles (EVs) has increased the demand for intelligent battery management systems capable of ensuring operational safety, reliability, and extended battery life. Battery failures caused by overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, overheating, and gas leakage can significantly degrade battery performance and may lead to hazardous incidents such as thermal runaway and fire. This paper presents a Smart EV Battery Monitoring and Fire Prevention System that continuously monitors critical battery parameters and provides real-time protection against abnormal operating conditions. The proposed system employs an ESP32 microcontroller integrated with voltage, current (ACS712), temperature, and MQ-2 gas sensors to acquire and process battery data. A Battery Management System (BMS) is incorporated to provide overcharge, over-discharge, and short-circuit protection, while a relay module disconnects the battery during critical conditions. The system also utilizes a cooling fan, buzzer, LCD display, and GPS module to enhance user safety through immediate alerts, thermal management, and location tracking. Experimental evaluation under normal operation and multiple fault scenarios—including over-temperature, over-voltage, under-voltage, and over-current conditions—demonstrated reliable fault detection, rapid response, and effective activation of protective mechanisms. The developed prototype successfully enhanced battery safety, minimized the risk of fire hazards, and improved system reliability through continuous real-time monitoring. Owing to its low cost, scalability, and IoT-enabled architecture, the proposed system is well suited for electric vehicles, e-bikes, battery energy storage systems, and other smart energy applications requiring continuous battery health monitoring and fire prevention.

The increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) necessitates the development of efficient, sustainable, and intelligent charging infrastructure. This paper presents a smart solar-assisted Internet of Things (IoT)-based EV charging system that integrates photovoltaic (PV) power generation, battery energy storage, intelligent energy management, and real-time cloud monitoring. The proposed system utilizes solar energy as the primary power source, while the utility grid serves as a backup during periods of insufficient solar generation. An ESP32-based microcontroller continuously monitors key charging parameters, including battery voltage, charging current, power, temperature, and battery status, and uploads the measured data to an IoT cloud platform for remote monitoring and analysis. The developed prototype was experimentally validated using a 60 V, 8 Ah electric scooter battery under both AC and DC charging modes. Experimental results demonstrate that the AC charger (60 V, 5 A) fully charges the battery from 55 V to 60 V in approximately 110 minutes, whereas the proposed DC fast charger (60 V, 15 A) completes the charging process in 60 minutes, resulting in a 45.5% reduction in charging time. The intelligent energy management system automatically prioritizes solar power, performs seamless source switching between solar, battery, and grid supplies, and ensures uninterrupted charging operation. The proposed system significantly improves charging efficiency, reduces dependence on the conventional power grid, enhances renewable energy utilization, and provides a cost-effective, scalable, and environmentally sustainable solution for residential, commercial, and institutional EV charging applications.
