    BMS Tutorial Course 2/3: Battery Stack Design for UL 1973 Certification

    If you are developing a stationary energy storage system, chances are you have already heard of UL 1973 and UL 9540. Being certified to these important safety standards is quickly becoming the price of admission in the energy storage industry. When taking your battery stack design through the UL 1973 certification process, the level of effort is significantly impacted by the compliances and ratings of the individual components in your battery rack. Join Nate Wennyk, Senior Hardware Designer at Nuvation Energy, for an inside look at the development of UL 1973 Recognized battery stack solutions.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Understanding battery stack architecture
    • Impacts of component certifications on the UL 1973 LOE
    • Designing flexibility into a locked-down stack configuration
    • UL 1973 Recognition case studies and engineering war stories

    BMS Tutorial Course 3/3: Gain More Visibility Into Your Energy Storage System

    Long-term ownership and management of an energy storage system requires high visibility into the batteries to enable problem identification and resolution, compare actual vs. predicted degradation curves, and plan for capacity augmentation. Real-time diagnostics and historical battery health data can be utilized to improve system reliability and reduce the total cost of ESS ownership. Join Nuvation Energy CEO Michael Worry for an examination of how battery data analytics can be retrieved from the BMS and utilized to optimize system maintenance and contribute to the long-term viability of the energy storage system.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Business impacts of low visibility into internal battery operation
    • Problems frequently encountered by operators in the field
    • “Cell to cloud” remote system diagnosis
    • Battery warranty tracking

    Solid-State Li-Ion Batteries – Key Technology Approaches & Time-to-Market

    Attendees will learn which solid-state batteries have been launched already into beachhead markets, and which technology barriers for now prevent deployment in mass EV applications. Risks & opportunities identified in IP portfolios by large battery & automotive manufacturers and key startups will be compared with go-to-market & technology readiness statements. Finally, we will explain why hybrid battery packs or cells based on both liquid and solid electrolytes could potentially accelerate the automotive adoption of solid-state batteries.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Solid-state Li-ion batteries
    • Key innovation approaches & global patent literature
    • Time-to-market with respect to key applications: electronics/IoT, medical implants, automotive/rolling stock, stationary energy storage
    • Examples of solid electrolyte, cathode & anode selection
    • Combination of solid electrolytes with liquid electrolytes at the pack or cell level

    All Solid-State Batteries and the Future of Energy Storage

    The development of all solid-state batteries (ASSBs) has seen tremendous progress in recent years. However, several barriers still need to be overcome before ASSBs can be commercialized. These obstacles include poor interfacial stability, scalability challenges as well as the difficulty to precisely diagnose problems within the cell. Additionally, efforts to develop sustainable recyclability in lithium ion batteries are still lacking. In this webinar, we discuss SSEs chemistries and its implications on interfacial stability. We also cover the current state-of-the-art characterization techniques and evaluate future ASSB prototyping strategies. Finally, we hope to discuss potential strategies toward a sustainable ASSB recycling model to address the growing lithium ion battery waste problem.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Overview of solid-state batteries and solid-state electrolyte research
    • Importance of interfacial stability – correlate chemical, electrochemical and mechanical-induced reactions
    • Challenges for diagnosis / characterization of buried interfaces and lithium dendrites
    • Scalable fabrication considerations of commercialized all-solid-state batteries
    • Sustainability – Battery recycling concerns of Cost, Efficiency and the Environment
