Abstract—Life time of chemical batteries is one off main
problems in low earth orbit satellites due to their fast charge
and discharge. Electro-mechanical batteries have some
important advantage in comparison with chemical one, but they
need a 3 phase, variable voltage and frequency, inverter. The
method of maximum power point tracking in satellites utilizing
electro-mechanical energy storage systems are proposed in this
paper. It will be shown that efficiency and reliability is
increased in the proposed manner.
Index Terms—MPPT, energy storage, electromechanical,
battery.
