Sales of battery electrics and hybrids were up last year, while plug in hybrids dropped even as the number of entries increased. New products are coming in 2020 and beyond; will sales rise quickly enough to keep the market moving forward? Product, price, incentives, features, branding, and marketing all matter and will be discussed.
For the second year in a row, we expect Tesla’s US sales to decline, although each category (e.g., hybrids, plug ins, battery electrics) will increase with the strongest increase in…regular and mild hybrids.
Major changes in costs and technology, as well as the impact of suppliers in these areas, will be discussed, as well as expectations for the near-term.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Review of 2019 Sales with a 2020 Forecast
• How Regulation in the US and Beyond Is Moving the Market
• Regulation Matters, But Company Strategies Often Matter More
• Is There a Gap Between Strategy and Reality?
• The Role of Suppliers and Technology

Adding Intelligent Battery Management to Lead-Acid Energy Storage Systems
Lead batteries are resilient and have a low likelihood of catastrophic failure. However, their lifespan can be significantly reduced when operated outside of manufacturer specifications. The extension of lead battery life through active battery management is becoming a compelling value proposition for vendors of lead-based energy storage systems.
The evolving regulatory environment governing energy storage safety is also impacting how both lead and lithium chemistries are to be managed moving forward. Join Nuvation CEO Michael Worry to explore the reasons why active battery management is becoming adopted in large-scale lead battery applications, and how the changing regulatory environment is impacting lead-based energy storage.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Controlling off-gassing in vented and VRLA lead batteries
• Emerging functional safety regulations and UL 1973
• Using a BMS to reduce the levelized cost of energy
• Automating stack connection sequencing in a multi-stack ESS
• Lead-based energy storage system deploymentsPresenter

Advanced Techniques For Addressing Issues in Battery Safety and Performance Using Adiabatic Calorimetry
FREE Webinar – THT is a proud sponsor of this event.
Adiabatic calorimetry is a widely utilized technique within the field of battery safety research. The method has been adapted from the chemical industry to address a significant range of safety and performance tests on battery components, cells and even modules.
Although a number of different battery tests may be employed using the ARC, interpretation of results is not always straightforward. Some of the principles which apply to ARC chemical testing do not translate directly to battery testing due to the variable nature of samples.
This presentation describes both the advantages and limitations of ARC testing on batteries and how the ARC test can be adapted to address different questions in battery research as well as quality control.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• The principles of adiabatic calorimetry (ARC)
• How calorimetry can be used in battery testing
• What we learn from battery testing by calorimetry
• Pressure measurement and gas collection during thermal runaway
• Advanced testing techniques in adiabatic battery calorimetryPresenter

Battery Selection Tutorial Course 1/3: Selecting your Cell and Cell Manufacturer(s)
After designing your product, you need to ensure the battery with which you are operating it will ensure the right performance and lifetime. When deciding this, narrowing down which chemistry (e.g. Li-ion, lithium primary, NiMH, etc.) best fits your product and which form factor are some of the first steps. Choosing a cell design (high-power vs. high-energy, for example) is another step and finally, finding the right cell manufacturer to fabricate your cells and packs. This webinar is the first in a three-part series on designing the right battery for your product. It will cover many of the key differences in chemistries, form factors, and cell designs and other best practices.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Choosing the right chemistry for your application
• Choosing the right form factor
• Choosing cell designs (e.g. high power vs. high-energy)Presenter
