  Batteries are Complicated

  Much like other global platform technologies that came before them (e.g., the internet, microchips), batteries represent for today’s businesses both enormous challenge and enormous opportunity. Get batteries right, and you can create a huge competitive advantage and trillions of dollars of value (see Apple, Tesla). Get them wrong and face multi-billion dollar recalls and incalculable brand damage.

  It can be overwhelming trying to stay on top of these trends or determine which battery to bet on. New tools are needed in order to maximize value from batteries and, perhaps more importantly, to avoid costly missteps.

  Join us for a discussion about how “batteries are complicated” — what we mean by that, and what it means for you.

  This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

  • Batteries are impacting every technology application and corner of our lives — representing both enormous challenge and opportunity
  • Battery technology is constantly evolving. While lithium-ion batteries established market dominance, there is still enormous variation across form factors, chemical formulations, internal components — not to mention continuous improvements to enhance performance

  Next-Level Planning – Using Machine Learning To Improve EV Charging Network Buildout

  At Volta, our mission is to drive sustainability forward and we created a tool to help you do just that. Praveen Mandal introduces the PredictEV, a machine-learning technology to predict electric vehicle adoption and demand, and plan charging infrastructure accordingly. PredictEV allows utilities, municipalities, and other related partners to optimize their decision-making process and reshape their transportation infrastructure to capitalize on the booming electric vehicle segment.

  This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

  • An overview of the rapidly evolving electrification industry
  • How Volta is leveraging machine learning technology to differentiate the scope of their services
  • Introduce PredictEV— a technology developed by Volta to predict and plan for electric vehicle adoption and demand
  • An in-depth explanation of the PredictEV’s far-reaching capabilities

  Combining Characterization Techniques for Supporting Development of Batteries

  The complexity and scale of different physical-chemical processes inside batteries render any development to be strongly dependent on their proper description and monitoring, from nano-scale to the system-scale. Using different case studies solved by the TEESMAT platform, we will demonstrate how the combination of standard and advanced characterization techniques can support the development of new batteries. Among some examples, we will present:

  – Probing the failure mechanisms of new ultra-capacitors
  – Analyzing commercial Li-ion cells for envisaging a second life (safety)
  – Understanding the copper oxidation phenomena during the fabrication process
  – Quality control of electrodes
  – Fine characterization of polymer based electrolyte for future Li-ion batteries

  This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

  • Complexity of electrochemical energy storage systems
  • Efficient characterization tools – from nano-scale to pack size
  • Case studies on full value chain – material level, electrochemical mechanisms, production processes, safety, and increased device performance

  Presenter
  Cyril Marino, PhD – Project Leader at Serma Technologies

  Dr. Cyril Marino obtained a PhD on material science about the understanding of electrochemical phenomena for the conversion materials used as negative electrode for Li-ion batteries at Université Montpellier 2 (France) in 2012. He was pursuing in the field of research with one assistant professor position at Technische Universität München (Germany) and one scientist position at Paul Scherrer Institut to work on the understanding of high voltage cathode materials for Li-ion batteries and the development of Na-ion batteries. He joined Serma Technologies in March 2019 as electrochemical energy storage systems Expert and is the TEESMAT project leader at Serma.

  Methods and Instrumentation for Testing Li-ion Batteries, Materials to Modules

  We will walk through different phases of research from material development, characterization of cells and stacks, and advanced diagnostics on modules for Electric Vehicles. Attendees will have the opportunity to listen to and speak with the innovators of the frequency response analyzer (Solatron Analytical) and the digital potentiostat (Princeton Applied Research).

  Features of instrumentation will be translated into benefits for users. Data from many different solutions will be presented; highlighted by the recently concluded UK-based consortium to rapidly grade the State-of-Health of NISSAN Leaf modules.

  This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

  • Electrochemical methods used to characterize Li-ion batteries:  materials, cells, stacks, and modules
  • Benefits of accuracy and resolution on performance tests of Energy Devices
  • Mapping of experiment techniques and test methods to instrument specifications
  • How AMETEK’s portfolio meets these similar but uniquely defined needs at different points of the value chain
