Systems and methods for low temperature charging a battery, which may be performed alone or in combination with heating a battery. In some aspects, the low temperature charging method involves obtaining a susceptance response of a battery, and upon a change in the susceptance response of the battery, altering a charge signal to the battery. It is understood that changes in susceptance are correlated with phase changes of a battery electrolyte – e.g., as a battery warms from a low temperature where the electrolyte is partially or completely frozen (solid) to a higher temperature where it changes to a liquid state, there is a change in susceptance. As the electrolyte changes from solid to liquid as understood from a change in the susceptance response, the charge may be increased as the electrolyte thaws.

Systems and methods are disclosed for estimating state parameters of lithium manganese iron phosphate (LMFP) battery cells with improved accuracy and robustness. Per-cell estimation of state of charge (SOC) and state of health (SOH) is performed using electrical measurements including voltage, current, and temperature.
