Battery system management in high voltage systems

A computer system comprising processing circuitry configured to:

• control a battery management system adapted for a high voltage battery system in an energy storage system,
• receive measurement data from a plurality of sensors, wherein the measurement data comprises any one of voltages, current, temperatures, impedances, or combinations thereof,
• determine that at least one battery pack is a faulty battery pack, wherein the determination is based on the measurement data,
• determine an optimum level of state of charge for at least battery packs that are arranged adjacent to the faulty battery pack, wherein the optimum level of state of charge is based on the measurement data;
• and
• control a discharge of stored energy from the battery packs adjacent to the faulty battery pack based on the determined optimum level of state of charge.
