Abstract: Methods and controllers manage battery capacities of two or more portable power station (PPS) units connected together in a parallel arrangement to produce a total output current, wherein a first PPS unit operates as a voltage source and each of a second or more PPS unit operates as a current source. Each PPS unit communicates with a battery capacity controller (BCC) wherein each PPS transmits a battery capacity measure to the BCC at selected time intervals. The BCC uses the battery capacity measures to implement a battery capacity control strategy that determines the amount of output current each of the second or more PPS units contributes to the total output current at each time interval. The BCC transmits a control coefficient to each of the second or more PPS units corresponding to the determined amount of output current to be produced by each of the second or more PPS units.
