Abstract

Aspects of the present disclosure include systems, apparatuses, or methods for a system for reducing battery cell failure propagation risk includes a rechargeable battery including a plurality of rechargeable cells connected in series, parallel, or a combination of series and parallel and a BMS coupled with the battery. The BMS includes a processor and a memory including computer-executable instructions to receive information indicative of a status of each of the rechargeable cells; determine that a particular rechargeable cell is likely in a failure condition; identify a group of rechargeable cells that is in within one hop of the rechargeable cell that is likely in the failure condition; couple the group of rechargeable cells to a discharging system without coupling the rechargeable cell in the failure condition to the discharging system; and discharge the group of rechargeable cells to a target SOC.
