Abstract

A system for managing battery electric machines (BEMs) at a worksite is disclosed. The system includes a processor configured to receive battery state information from the BEMs and determine a primary battery state and a secondary battery state. Further, the processor is configured to identify a BEM requiring controller action and determine the controller action corresponding to the identified BEM based on the secondary battery state and a short interval control (SIC) plan. Furthermore, the processor is configured to provide the battery state information of the BEMs and provide the primary battery state of the identified BEM visually distinct from the primary battery state of the other BEMs on the display. The processor is also configured to provide the secondary battery state corresponding to the identified BEM and provide the determined controller action.
