BIS Tutorial Course 3/3: Battery Intelligence in New Product Introduction (NPI) for Transportation and Consumer Electronics
FREE Webinar – Voltaiq is a proud sponsor of this event.
OEMs are faced with an ever growing list of challenges when designing batteries into their systems, from long qualification time, to increasingly complex systems and the lack of qualified battery engineers.
In this webinar, we’ll review the battery and systems qualification process for transportation and consumer electronics, including specific reference performance tests such as hybrid pulse power characterization (HPPC), that are used for BMS development.
We’ll then shift into how Battery Intelligence Systems (BIS) can both accelerate time to market for New Product Introduction (NPI), and can surface deeper insights about variability in batteries and packs to increase range, lower costs, and improve reliability.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• The state of OEM new product introduction (NPI)
• Battery and system qualification
• BMS development and hybrid pulse power characterization (HPPC)
• Ensuring time to market for NPI
• Extending range and lifetime with component variability assessment

Best Practices – Scaling your EV Battery Program for Optimal Effectiveness
The ability to scale a battery program for agility and efficiency is crucial, particularly within the rapidly evolving EV market. Key to achieving this scale is the use of data generated throughout battery development to inform optimal, rapid decision making. A new class of software, the Battery Intelligence System (BIS), is now in commercial production helping organizations unlock the value of their data to achieve scale. This webinar will provide an introduction to BIS and offer valuable insight on how to best leverage the data your organization is already generating to keep your battery program nimble and efficient.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• A review of current industry challenges
• An introduction to Battery Intelligence Systems (BIS) that unify data and provide immediate access to data-driven insights for decision making
• A review of best practices to help teams standardize processes and increase organizational efficiency
• An overview of management tools to track and optimize battery programs

Calorimetric Measurements of Lithium-Ion Batteries Under Use and Abuse
This presentation will describe two main types of calorimetric techniques that can be used to carry out performance and safety testing on batteries. These are isothermal calorimetry and adiabatic calorimetry.
The first half of the presentation will introduce isothermal calorimetry; the various types of instruments, the method of operation, and examples of data that can be obtained. The second half of the presentation will cover battery testing methods for the ARC adiabatic calorimeter system. The theoretical background of the test method will be described, and recommended practice for various types of testing will be discussed.
The presentation will also mention complementary test methods that can be integrated with calorimetry to provide even more useful analysis.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Principles of isothermal and adiabatic calorimetry for batteries
• Advantages and limitations of these two methods
• Discussion of applications and results
• Recommended testing practices

Measurements That Accelerate Battery Development
FREE Webinar – Metrohm is a proud sponsor of this event.
Material damage and defects in separators and collectors can ultimately cause thermal runaway and lead to failure of the cell. Improved design of these key components is vital for safer batteries, and proper testing early in the development process ensures high performance.
In this webinar, battery expert Brian Morin, CEO of Soteria Battery Innovation Group, will reveal new architectures that lead to safer cell performance. Reza Fathi, Product Specialist from Metrohm Autolab, will discuss the use of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) for Li-ion battery analysis. Using case studies and real-world examples, they will also describe why performance-predictive electrical and electrochemical measurements are necessary to accelerate the development process.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• How to design separators and current collectors to deter thermal runaway
• How to utilize bench-top measurements as screening tools during early cell development to reduce time and expense
• How temperature-controlled impedance measurements lead to advanced materials analysis
• Electrochemical techniques to test and evaluate Li-ion cells
