The growth of electric vehicles (EVs) has sparked creative methods for increasing battery life and improving energy efficiency. In this work, a Battery Management System (BMS) for self-charging electric vehicles (SCEVs) is presented. The suggested solution comprises of a BLDC or induction motor for propulsion attached to the back wheel while an alternator is attached to the front tire that produces power while the vehicle runs. A pole switch is used for smooth transitioning between the two battery packs A and B. This aims in providing continuous vehicle motion while the alternator's activity charges the battery attached to the motor. The BMS is an essential part of this system since it not only stops overcharging but also uses active cell balancing technique during discharging and passive cell balancing technique during charging to maximize battery performance. This study demonstrates how well the suggested BMS works to extend the life SCEVs, providing a viable option for the development of EVs in the future.
