Summary: In recent years, digital twins for large-scale and investment-intensive Li-ion battery systems in marine and stationary applications have gained increasing interest. Considering electrical cell-to-cell variations (CtCVs) within the battery model of such a digital twin offers advantages in model-based optimization and predictive maintenance. However, existing approaches for the characterization and modeling of CtCVs are not suitable for large-scale systems. This paper presents a holistic tool chain consisting of a non-destructive method for in-situ determination of resistance and capacity distributions, parameterization of a multi-cell battery model, and simplification through multivariate statistical analysis.
