The significant increase in the use of electric vehicles (EVs) demands the development of fast charging systems that are not only efficient but also maintain battery integrity. One of the primary challenges in direct current (DC) charging is balancing speed with minimizing degradation caused by thermal stress. This study proposes a charging optimization model based on the Thunderstorm Optimization Algorithm (TA) for CHAdeMO-based DC systems. A lithium-ion equivalent circuit battery model was used to simulate electrochemical and thermal dynamics. The model introduces an adaptive charging current profile designed with a dynamic boundary configuration, defined here as the iterative adjustment of current limits according to real-time thermal and health constraints. Compared to conventional constant current–constant voltage (CC–CV) methods, TA considers maximum temperature, State of Health (SoH), and target State of Charge (SoC) simultaneously. The simulation (180 minutes, passive cooling, Python-based) showed that TA reduced SoH degradation to 1.3% and battery life usage to 18.4%—the latter defined as cumulative stress energy normalized to initial capacity—compared to 2.9% and 22.5% for CC–CV. Additionally, TA achieved a higher average charging power (26.1 kW vs. 24.8 kW) without exceeding 50 °C. Although the algorithm requires more computational effort than CC–CV, its moderate complexity suggests feasibility for real-time integration in battery management systems. These findings highlight TA as a promising adaptive and sustainability-oriented charging strategy.

  1. INTRODUCTION

The rapid growth in the use of electric vehicles (EVs) has driven an increase in the need for efficient, fast, and safe charging systems [1]. One of the charging technologies that is widely adopted is the direct current (DC) charging system with the CHAdeMO protocol [2], which supports high-power charging in a short time. However, conventional charging methods such as constant current (CC) and constant voltage (CV), while simple and widely [3] used, often pose technical challenges, including increased battery temperature and decreased battery health (SoH), which directly affect safety and lifespan [4]. Moreover, these strategies fail to adapt to dynamic thermal and electrochemical conditions, often leading to higher degradation rates [5]. These limitations highlight the need for adaptive optimization approaches that can dynamically adjust charging profiles. One potential candidate is the Thunderstorm Optimization Algorithm (TA), a metaheuristic inspired by the collective behavior of thunderstorm clouds. The research contribution is the development of a TA-based charging model for CHAdeMO systems that simultaneously addresses charging speed, thermal management, and long-term health degradation.

In the fast charging process, the battery temperature can increase significantly due to the high inlet power, which, if not managed properly, will accelerate electrochemical degradation, permanently reduce battery capacity, and shorten battery life [5]. Therefore, a charging strategy is needed that is able to balance charging speed, safe limits of operating temperature, and the preservation of battery conditions [6]. This is where the role of optimization methods becomes very important [7]. Several previous studies have raised this issue from various perspectives. Zentani et al. [8] explained that fast charging without good thermal management can accelerate the decline in battery capacity and pose a safety risk. Ravindran et al. [9] emphasise the importance of integrating active thermal management strategies to maintain battery performance in DC fast charging. In addition, Shaker et al. [10] reviewed charging protocols and found that static approaches, such as constant current and constant voltage, are limited in addressing temperature and internal resistance dynamics.

As technology has evolved, various optimization algorithms based on metaheuristics and natural phenomena have been used in the control of complex and dynamic systems, including battery charging systems [11]-[13]. The research developed a Deep Bayesian Optimization method based on Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) to intelligently formulate a lithium-ion battery charging strategy in a simulated environment [14][15]. This approach considers battery temperature and degradation as constraints, and shows positive results in extending battery life [16]. However, this approach focuses on sequential data-driven learning and does not directly shape the charging current profile in actual fast charging protocols such as CHAdeMO.

Wu et. al designed a Dynamic Programming (DP)-based thermal management strategy that can reduce cooling energy consumption and degradation rate through  battery simulation [17]. Wu's approach emphasizes more on temperature control from the cooling system side, rather than from the adjustment of the charge current profile, and does not evaluate the simultaneous effects on SoH and charging speed [18]. Taking into account the advantages and limitations of previous studies, it can be concluded that there is still a need to develop simulation-based fast charging strategies that can dynamically optimize the charging current profile, taking into account three key aspects simultaneously: charging speed, temperature management, and long-term battery health (SoH). For this reason, this study proposes an optimization model based on the Thunderstorm Algorithm (TA) on DC charging systems with the CHAdeMO protocol, as an alternative solution to conventional methods that are still limited to the fixed current approach.

The Thundestorm Algorithm (TA) mimics the collective behavior and movement of thunderstorm clouds in adaptively exploration exploring solution spaces [19].  It has been successfully applied in several electrical power optimization problems [20][21] and is capable of efficiently handling multiple parameters and constraints simultaneously. In this study, the main problem to be addressed is how to optimize the fast charging process in the DC CHAdeMO system so that charging speed can be accelerated without exceeding the battery thermal management while minimizing long-term degradation [22][23]. This reflects the need to design an intelligent and dynamic charging current profile. A formal description of the TA procedure, including pseudocode and a flowchart, is presented in Section 2 to clarify its operational steps and its adaptation to the EV fast-charging context.

Based on the background and formulation of the problem, the purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate a fast charging optimization model based on the Thunderstorm Algorithm (TA) on DC charging systems with the CHAdeMO protocol [24][25]. The model is designed to produce an optimal charging current profile, which considers three key aspects: charging speed, battery temperature management, and long-term battery health (SoH) [26]. The effectiveness of the model is tested through simulations and compared with conventional methods to assess its performance and efficiency improvements [27]-[30]. One of the key indicators used in the evaluation is the State of Charge (SoC), which shows how quickly the battery reaches 100% SoC condition [31]-[33]. A more efficient algorithm should be able to optimize charging in less time, without sacrificing system stability [34][35]. In addition, the State of Health (SoH) is analyzed to measure battery degradation during the charging process [36]. This degradation is affected by factors such as the operating temperature and the charging current applied [37]-[39].

  1. METHODS
  1. Conventional Charging Model

The conventional charging model assumes that the charging current remains constant at its maximum allowable value until the battery reaches either full capacity or the maximum time limit.

  1. Thunderstorm Optimization Based Charging Model

The TA optimization method uses an adaptive strategy in determining the charging current profile so that it can maximize the charging speed without exceeding the temperature limit and minimize battery degradation [19]. The TA introduces an adaptive control of charging current to maximize charging speed without violating thermal and health constraints. Unlike the simple random perturbation presented earlier, TA is based on the collective behavior of thunderstorm clouds. Each cloud represents a candidate charging current profile. Lightning strikes simulate exploration by generating new candidate solutions, while cloud movements represent exploitation, gradually converging towards regions of higher solution quality. This mechanism ensures that the current profile adapts to minimize degradation and maintain safe thermal limits, while still achieving rapid SoC growth.

This step functions as a built-in safety constraint rather than a separate rule, since temperature is explicitly integrated into the optimization fitness function

  1. Degradation Model

Unlike in the earlier draft, the parameter  is not altered by the algorithm. Instead, TA reduces the effective degradation by dynamically limiting power surges and thermal stress, thereby slowing the cumulative SoH decline.

  1. Distinction Between SoH and Battery Life Usage

Two degradation indicators are used in this study:

This distinction ensures that short-term degradation (SoH) and long-term cumulative wear (Battery Life Usage) are both captured. A flowchart is introduced (Figure 1) to clarify the TA procedure:

  1. Simulation Framework and Parameters

The simulation was conducted to evaluate the performance of the fast charging strategy using conventional approaches and TA based approaches. All simulations are run in a Python-based programmatic environment, with a maximum load duration of 180 minutes and a discrete time resolution of 1 minute per cycle. The simulation does not use direct experimental data, but is based on mathematical modeling that represents the physical dynamics of lithium-ion batteries in the CHAdeMO charging system.

The technical parameters of the system are adjusted to the characteristics of the CHAdeMO protocol, including a battery capacity of 71.4 kWh, a maximum current limit of 125 A, and a charging voltage varying between 50 to 500 V. The charging voltage is calculated linearly based on the State of Charge (SoC), while the battery temperature is dynamically updated using a simple thermal model that takes into account the incoming power and cooling efficiency. The degradation of the State of Health (SoH) and the estimated battery life are calculated as a function of the accumulated power and the duration of the charge.

The two simulation approaches were applied separately for comparison purposes. In the first approach, the conventional method is applied by maintaining the charging current at a constant value (125 A) throughout the duration of the simulation, without considering the operating temperature limit or the state of health of the battery. Instead, the second approach applies an optimization strategy based on the Thunderstorm Algorithm (TA), in which the charging current profile is adjusted adaptively at each time interval. The current adjustment in the TA method takes into account three main constraints simultaneously, namely the maximum temperature of the battery, the SoC achievement target of 100%, and the minimization of SoH degradation during the charging process. The evaluation is carried out based on six main parameters that are continuously monitored during the filling process. The evaluation metrics are summarized in Table 1: charging current, voltage, SoC, SoH, battery life usage, and power. All results are based solely on simulation without experimental validation.

The results presented in this paper are derived entirely from numerical simulations. No experimental or field validation has yet been conducted. As such, the results should be interpreted with caution until verified by physical experiments. The simulation was carried out by applying both scenarios independently. The simulation output data in the form of a time series for each parameter is then analyzed visually. Graphs are used to illustrate the difference in dynamics between the TA method and the conventional method. The evaluation not only includes the achievement of the final SoC, but also considers current stability, power efficiency, and conservation of battery health during the charging process.

  1. RESULT AND DISCUSSION

The simulation was conducted to evaluate the performance of the electric vehicle fast charging system by comparing two approaches: the conventional method and the optimization-based method using the Thunderstorm Optimization Algorithm (TA). The simulation was carried out in a discrete time environment with a resolution of 1 minute, for a maximum duration of 180 minutes, and was run separately for each method. The technical parameters of the charging system follow the specifications of the CHAdeMO protocol and the characteristics of lithium-ion batteries. Table 2 summarizes the main parameters used in the simulation process, including battery capacity, charging current and voltage limits, and operating temperature limits. In addition, parameters for the TA algorithm, such as population size and maximum number of iterations, are also listed as part of the experiment configuration.

Both simulation approaches were applied independently. In the conventional method, the charging current is set at a fixed maximum value (125 A), without considering the effects of temperature or battery degradation. In contrast, the TA-based approach dynamically optimises the charging current by considering three main constraints simultaneously: the maximum temperature limit of the battery (thermal constraint), achieving 100% State of Charge (SoC), and minimising battery health degradation (SoH). The simulation produces output in the form of a time series for six main parameters: charging current, charging voltage, State of Charge (SoC), State of Health (SoH), battery life usage, and actual charging power. In addition to being visually analyzed through graphs, the final results of each method are summarized in Table 3 for quantitative comparison purposes.

  1. Charging Current and Voltage Behaviour

Figure 2 shows the current and voltage profiles of the charge to time for the two compared charging methods: the conventional method and the TA based optimization method. Both show fundamental differences in both the current regulation pattern and the voltage response of the battery during the charging process.

Figure 2.  (a) Current profile and (b) Voltage Profile

In conventional methods, the charging current starts at a fixed value of 125 A, then decreases to about 90 A after a certain point in time—indicating a transition from the constant current (CC) to constant voltage (CV) stage, which is a common approach in fast charging systems. The charging voltage in this method increases sharply and exponentially, as the SoC increases, until it is close to the maximum voltage limit (500 V). This increase in voltage signifies that the system continues to impose high currents even as the battery's internal resistance increases, potentially leading to uncontrollable temperature increases as well as accelerated cell degradation. In contrast, in the TA method, the current profile is dynamic and fluctuates throughout the charging process. This current variation is the result of an iterative optimization process that simultaneously considers operational temperatures, SoC achievement rates, and SoH degradation rates. With a more flexible current setting, the charging voltage in the TA method increases more moderately and linearly. This shows that TA not only avoids excessive current surges, but is also able to maintain the stability of the system by regulating the rate of voltage increase to stay within the safe zone.

These findings reinforce that optimization approaches such as TA can produce a more grid-friendly and battery-friendly charging profile than conventional methods. Intelligent current regulation has a direct impact on voltage, which in turn contributes to the reduction of thermal stress and the long-term efficiency of the battery system. This relationship between current control and voltage response is an important cornerstone in designing a charging strategy between current control and voltage response, this is an important foundation in designing an adaptive charging strategy in modern DC fast charging systems. The ‘conventional method’ in this study follows a CC–CV profile: constant current at 125 A until voltage reaches the upper limit (500 V), followed by constant voltage with a natural tapering current.

  1. Battery State Evolution (SoC and SoH)

Figure 3 shows the evolution of the State of Charge (SoC) and State of Health (SoH) during the charging process for the two simulation approaches. The graph on the left shows that the conventional method can upgrade the SoC at a much higher speed than the TA method, whereby At the end of 180 minutes, both methods achieved near full charge, with final SoC values of 97.3% for the conventional method and 99.2% for TA. The earlier description of ‘60% vs. 30%’ was incorrect and has been corrected here. This is due to the use of maximum constant current on the conventional approach, which aggressively encourages the rate of energy charge without considering the internal conditions of the battery.

However, the high charging speed of conventional methods has negative consequences for battery health, as seen in the SoH graph (right). The decline in SoH in conventional methods is much sharper than that of TA. During the simulation duration, conventional methods experienced SoH degradation of around 2.9%, while TA only experienced a decrease of about 1.3%. This difference suggests that although TA sacrifices some charging speed, this method is significantly more effective in maintaining the chemical stability and internal structure of the battery cell. The TA strategy explicitly regulates the current based on the health level and temperature of the battery. When the system detects an increase in power that has the potential to accelerate degradation, the algorithm will respond by reducing the current, thereby slowing down the decline in SoH. In contrast, conventional approaches lack adaptive mechanisms, so they continue to push the battery under conditions of high thermal and chemical stress.

These findings underscore the importance of optimization-based current control in the fast charging process. In the long-term context, maintaining SoH is essential to extend battery life, reduce replacement costs, and ensure optimal electric vehicle performance. Therefore, the TA approach can be considered not only safer but also more sustainable than conventional strategies. Similar observations were reported by Zhang [14] and Tomaszewska [15], who demonstrated that adaptive current strategies are more effective in reducing degradation rates compared to fixed CC–CV methods.

  1. Estimated Battery Lifetime Usage

Figure 4 shows the estimated battery lifetime usage during the charging process for conventional methods and TA based methods. This parameter is calculated cumulatively based on the energy entering the battery and is used as an indicator of the accumulation of electrothermal stress against the battery cells. The simulation results show that conventional methods cause a much higher rate of battery life degradation than TA. At the end of the charging duration (180 minutes), the conventional method recorded a battery life usage of close to 34%, while the TA method was only about 18%. This difference reflects the significant impact of charging strategies on the long-term durability of batteries.

This condition is consistent with the characteristics of conventional methods that use the maximum current constantly in the early stages of charging, resulting in a large accumulation of incoming power in a short period of time. This accumulation accelerates the chemical aging process of the battery due to increased internal resistance and high operating temperatures. In contrast, the TA method manages the current adaptively based on real-time inputs to temperature and SoH, thus keeping the incoming power level within safe limits and avoiding adverse energy spikes. The slowdown in the degradation rate shown by TA indicates that the adaptive charging strategy not only impacts short-term performance, but also directly affects the battery life cycle. In the context of practical implementation, this approach has the potential to lower the frequency of battery replacement and the overall operational costs of electric vehicles.

Figure 4. Estimated Battery Lifetime

  1. Charging Power Profile

Figure 5 shows the charging power profile over the simulation duration for the two methods compared. Charging power is calculated as the result of times between current and voltage in each time cycle, so it reflects the actual energy load that goes into the battery. This graph illustrates the fundamental difference between conventional charging strategies that are deterministic and TA methods that are adaptive in nature.

Conventional methods show an exponentially increasing power curve, especially in the second half of the charging process. This increase is due to the voltage continuing to increase (close to the maximum limit) while the charging current is still in the high range. This phenomenon creates a surge in incoming power that not only accelerates charging but also increases thermal and electrochemical risks that can accelerate battery cell degradation. In addition, the sudden change at the 60th minute shows a transition from a constant current to a constant voltage strategy that still forces a high power input in the final phase.

In contrast, the power profile in the TA method shows a fluctuating but controlled pattern. These fluctuations come from the iterative results of an optimization process that dynamically adjusts the current based on real-time conditions such as temperature and SoH. Although the average power of the TA is below the conventional method at the beginning of the charge, it tends to be more stable and more evenly distributed throughout the simulation time. This reflects the TA's approach that does not aggressively maximize inbound power, but prioritizes long-term energy stability and efficiency.

  1. Overall Performance Comparison

Table 3 and visualization of the simulation results show that the Thunderstorm Optimization Algorithm (TA)-based method provides significant advantages in terms of battery durability and long-term energy efficiency. At the end of the simulation duration, the TA method recorded a decrease in SoH by 1.3%, compared to 2.9% in the conventional method. In addition, the accumulated battery life degradation (lifetime usage) only reached 18.4% in TA, much lower than 22.5% in the conventional approach. On the other hand, TA also shows higher performance in terms of energy efficiency. Although TA operates with fluctuating and generally lower currents compared to the conventional method, the voltage profile under TA increased more linearly and stably. As a result, the average power delivered reached 26.1 kW, slightly higher than the 24.8 kW of the CC–CV method. This indicates that voltage dynamics, rather than current magnitude alone, play a dominant role in determining effective charging power, and highlights the advantage of TA in distributing energy more efficiently within safe thermal limits.

Nevertheless, the TA approach is not yet fully optimal in terms of charging speed. The final SoC value achieved at the same time is 99.2% for TA and 97.3% for conventional. Although this difference is relatively small, the time it takes to reach the maximum SoC in TA tends to be longer due to a conservative current adjustment strategy in response to thermal limits and degradation.  Significant current fluctuations in TAs can also require more complex and responsive control systems in real implementation. This implies that the implementation of TA in future fast charging systems needs to be balanced with hardware infrastructure and control systems that are adaptive to rapid changes in the flow profile. Taking into account all performance parameters, TA shows potential as a fast charging strategy that not only pays attention to charging time, but also actively maintains battery health and life. This approach can be a strategic solution in the development of electric vehicle charging systems that are oriented towards efficiency and sustainability.

  1. CONCLUSIONS

This study proposes and evaluates a fast charging optimization model based on the Thunderstorm Algorithm for DC charging systems with the CHAdeMO protocol. The simulation results showed that TA was able to reduce the SoH decrease to 1.3%, as well as reduce battery life usage by 18.4%, compared to 2.9% and 22.5% in conventional methods. In addition, the average charging power increased to 26.1 kW, without exceeding the operating temperature limit. The final SoC achieved with TA (99.2%) was slightly higher than that of the conventional method (97.3%), while simultaneously reducing SoH degradation (1.3% vs. 2.9%) and lifetime usage (18.4% vs. 22.5%). The main limitation of this work is that results are based solely on simulation using simplified thermal and degradation models, without experimental validation. Further research should focus on integrating TA with active cooling, real-time BMS control, and extending the approach to bidirectional Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) scenarios.
