The energy utilization of the series-connected battery pack by Cell 1 and Cell 2 can be expressed as 3.1.1.2. Different Capacity between Individual Cells Suppose C1 < C3 and other state parameters of single Cell 1 and single Cell 3 are the same. Single Cell 1 and single Cell 3 initial SOCs are 100%.

When cells are connected in parallel, the difference in Ohmic internal resistance between them causes branch current imbalance, low energy utilization in some individual cells, and a sharp expansion of unbalanced current at the end of discharge, which is prone to overdischarge and shortens battery life.
