Abstract

Electric Vehicle (EV) battery degradation in tropical environments remains poorly understood, with traditional linear models like OLS facing significant challenges such as multicollinearity, leading to unreliable insights into influential factors. This study aims to experimentally characterize lithium-ion battery degradation and comprehensively evaluate the influence of local climatic (temperature, humidity, dust) and driving conditions (road quality, mileage) in a Cameroonian tropical context, addressing the limitations of conventional statistical approaches. Our unique contribution involves providing empirical real-world data from a subSaharan environment and applying a novel hybrid CVAE-GRU methodology to capture complex non-linear and temporal dependencies. An embedded system continuously collected battery parameters (SoH, internal resistance) alongside environmental and driving data. The CVAE learns robust latent representations from these correlated inputs, while the GRU models their temporal dynamics for degradation prediction. Results confirm progressive SoH degradation, significantly accelerated by high temperatures, humidity, dust, and poor road quality. The CVAE-GRU approach effectively mitigates multicollinearity, offering superior accuracy and deeper insights into these influences. This work highlights the critical impact of tropical conditions on EV battery aging, providing crucial findings for developing adapted Battery Management Systems and fostering sustainable mobility in similar regions.
