Electrification is the largest disruption to the transportation industry in its 125-year history – Enterprise Battery Intelligence software is key to the future of EV companies.
With over 160,000 EV battery-related recalls in Q4 2020 alone, EV companies are investing billions of dollars in the facilities, teams and infrastructure needed to gain a deeper understanding of their batteries and how batteries impact their business. Developing, manufacturing and operating high-quality battery-powered products requires a deep understanding of battery behavior in real-world application settings. To do this well, EV companies must marshal mountains of data spanning the test lab, production line and vehicles operating in the field.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Enterprise Battery Intelligence software is key to your company’s future
• Batteries can add tremendous value—or incur serious costs
• A deep and holistic understanding of batteries is required to innovate, qualify new batteries and materials, ensure on-time product launches, reduce risk, determine resale/second-life value, increase ROI, among other business critical issues

A Raft of EVs and Hybrids are Coming – Will the Buyers Follow?
Current sales trends for hybrid and electric vehicles will be detailed as will the effect of public policy on these vehicles. California is moving forward even as the US EPA and NHTSA pull back, with states aligning with California that represent 40% of total US sales.
There is a plethora of new products coming from a variety of automakers, with certain automakers taking their own unique approaches, which will of course differentially affect suppliers and consumers. While China may be “ground zero” for product introductions and sales, the US will see a significant number of new products, particularly if we include vehicles that are “electrified” (as opposed to fully electric vehicles).
Changes in technology affecting the cost and therefore the price to consumers will be discussed.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Current Sales Trends Regarding EVs and Hybrids
• Current Status of the EPA/NHTSA Midterm Review
• Current Status of CA Regulatory Intentions Regarding Fuel Economy and Zero Emission Vehicles
• Automaker EV Plans Through 2025
• Other Factors Affecting EV and Hybrid Sales in this PeriodPresenter

Addressing Engineering Challenges of Vehicle Electrification With Model-Based Systems Engineering
The concern for the environment and energy savings is changing the way we think about transportation. Wide spreading vehicle electrification – not only through Electric Vehicles (EV) and Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV), but also electrification in conventional vehicles – has become a common trend of the industry and the upcoming battlefield to install new leading positions. Accounting for costs, reliability, safety, performance, customer acceptance, infrastructure and design process makes manufacturers and suppliers facing new engineering challenges that need to be addressed in a very short time-frame.
Technologies used for electrification are causing a growing complexity in systems and components, and producing vehicles designed right, first, at reasonable costs make the implementation of collaborative mechatronic system simulation a decisive and mandatory step in the engineering process.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• What are the global trends and challenges of vehicle electrification?
• What are the available technologies for reducing CO2 emissions?
• What are the benefits of stop & start and regenerative braking systems?
• How to characterize battery and optimize its thermal management?
• How do energy storage architectures impact battery aging?Presenter

BIS Tutorial Course 1/3: Introducing Battery Intelligence Systems (BIS)
FREE Webinar – Voltaiq is a proud sponsor of this event.
While the industry is familiar with the battery and its BMS (battery management system), very few are aware of the critical need for a missing third layer, the Battery Intelligence System (BIS) needed to enable the leap in battery yield, energy density, and lifetime the industry is calling for.
Battery Intelligence Systems are needed to leverage the latent value sitting in data that companies are collecting today, including but not limited to: data generated in battery factories in Asia, product OEMs around the globe, and ‘data lakes’ collecting data from systems in the field.
Your organization already has the building blocks to enable BIS. In this webinar we’ll show you the benefits of unlocking the value of your battery data.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• The need for Battery Intelligence
• State of the industry: insufficient resources to meet aggressive electrification goals
• State of data today: “Treating it like a mushroom and watching it grow”
• Automation of standard analyses
• Traceability with Battery Digital TwinsPresenter

Advancing Mining Processes to Make Better Materials for Use in Lithium Ion Batteries
American Manganese Inc has developed a low-cost, environmentally friendly hydrometallurgical process to recover manganese (Mn) from lower grade resources. American Manganese has applied for a patent for their hydrometallurgical process that produces electrolytic manganese metal with low energy and water consumption. American Manganese commissioned R&D contractor, Kemetco Research Inc to determine uses of Artillery Peak manganese resource material to generate high value alternative products. Chemical manganese dioxide (CMD) and lithiated manganese oxide (LixMn2O4) for use in rechargeable batteries were the areas researched.
The research was successful in producing CMD from Artillery Peak resource material with low cation impurities and avoiding processing steps that are known to introduce metallic impurities in the final product. Cation impurities cause capacity fade, whereas metallic impurities are known to cause catastrophic failures (such as fire and explosions) in lithium ion batteries. Working rechargeable lithium ion coin cell battery prototypes were produced from the CMD material.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Catastrophic failure of Li Ion batteries caused by metallic impurities that may be introduced from the mining of raw materials
• Conventional mining process to recover MnO2 used to make LiMn2O4
• Research on a new mining process that avoids steps known to introduce metallic impurities to recover MnO2 used to make LiMn2O4Presenter
