    Battery Qualification 101

    FREE Webinar – Voltaiq is a proud sponsor of this event.

    Batteries are the most complex and failure prone components in modern devices. To mitigate risks, companies extensively qualify battery cells and packs, a time consuming and expensive process that can lead to delays in product launch if issues are surfaced. Effectively managing time, personnel, and equipment is critical to meeting deadlines while also ensuring products meet safety and performance requirements.

    In this webinar, we’ll provide an introduction to battery qualification and show interactive demonstrations of performance qualifications. We’ll also highlight best practices and value-added analytics to ensure that quality issues are surfaced soon as possible so that product release timelines are met.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Discuss the need to qualify batteries
    •  Discuss the different types of battery qualification
    •  Introduction to common performance qualifications — rate capability and cycle life among others
    • Interactive analysis demonstration, first using traditional tools and then using a Battery Intelligence System
    •  Best practices to ensure product release timelines are met

    Battery Performance Testing – Pay Attention to the Details!

    The success of an energy storage project for stationary applications depends, for a large part, on how well the battery performs over time. Since there are little case studies showing real-world lifetime performance comparisons for various technologies the battery selection is primarily based on the performance data in a laboratory environment. Knowledge of the test conditions under which the data is obtained is critical to determine the suitability of the battery technology for the intended application. The influence of test conditions on the battery performance, and consequently on the battery selection process is discussed. The presentation presents real-world examples to emphasize on how subtle and often unspecified test conditions can affect the performance and lead to an un-optimized battery solution.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Battery selection process for stationary energy storage
    • Primary test conditions commonly presented
    • But…what’s hidden beneath the surface?
    • Examples of some subtle test conditions, if ignored, may lead to an un-optimized battery solution
    • How a good understanding of the product performance under different conditions can empower our customers with operating options

    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 deployments
