This presentation describes how Accelerating Rate Calorimetry (ARC®) is the adiabatic method of choice to carry out performance and safety testing on Li-ion batteries. This technique is widely used within the industry to understand the thermal characteristics of cells.
The theoretical background of the technique is described, with recommendations made across different testing types. Examples are shown across multiple form factors, from coin cells up to small modules.
Test methods discussed include decomposition tests, nail penetration, overcharge, short circuit, infrared, optical, gas generation and analysis, heat capacity and cycling.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Principle of adiabatic calorimetry for batteries
• Advantages of this method
• Discussion of applications and results
• Recommended testing practices

De-risking ESS Projects by Improving Safety & Availability
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) ensure grid stability and align supply with demand by storing surplus energy during periods of abundance and discharging it only when needed.
But they require a lot of monitoring: individual battery cells vary in quality and age, and these cell imbalances increase stress on the system. This leads to wasted energy and increased downtime. At the same time, regulators are paying attention and developing safety standards that apply to battery storage and the risks involved. In this webinar, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of how analytics can help you identify and mitigate battery performance and safety risks along the entire lifecycle, from design over commissioning & operation to de-commissioning.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• De-risk deployment and operators of BESS from design over commissioning & operation to de-commissioning
• Why monitoring battery systems with advanced analytics is so important
• How to identify issues with your system early on
• How to optimize BESS performance
• Industry best practices and emerging trendsPresenters
