Described herein are techniques for battery management. The techniques include a method comprising initializing a battery management system (BMS) associated with a battery and calculating a degraded battery capacity by charging the battery from a first voltage threshold to a test voltage threshold, discharging the battery from the test voltage threshold to the first voltage threshold, collecting measurements of discharge capacity at predetermined voltage measurement points while discharging the battery from the test voltage threshold to the first voltage threshold, generating a polynomial fit function for discharge capacity as a function of voltage for the battery based on the measuring, and estimating the degraded battery capacity. The method further includes charging the battery based on the degraded battery capacity, the charging resulting in the battery maintaining an updated voltage threshold.
