Battery Safety Assessment: From Cell to Pack Level
FREE Webinar – PlugVolt is a proud sponsor of this event.
For fast and reliable battery pack development, a virtual assessment of battery safety via simulation is presented. The methodology, from single cell abuse testing up to battery pack simulation of crash and crush loads, is discussed. Cell tests that provide detailed understanding of the mechanical behavior of single Li-ion cells are used to improve battery stiffness and to optimize battery pack design.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Method description: battery safety assessment from cell to pack level
• Abuse cell tests
• Abuse cell simulations
• Crash and crush simulations at module and pack levels

How Battery Intelligence Can “Recession-Proof” Your Battery Program
FREE Webinar – Voltaiq is a proud sponsor of this event.
COVID-19 and the recession will separate winners from losers. Despite the current downturn, there are opportunities for automakers, consumer electronics OEMs, cell suppliers, and the broader battery ecosystem to adopt new tools and processes to survive the recession and come out on top. For the greater battery ecosystem, Voltaiq, the market leader in Battery Intelligence software, is helping companies adapt to the new normal for remote work, streamlined decision making, and organizational efficiency. This webinar will provide an overview of battery-specific challenges related to COVID-19, best practices highlighted by leading business publications, and real examples of how leading companies are using tools like Voltaiq to navigate the current storm, make gains on the competition, and ship product.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• The impact of COVID-19 on battery development programs
• Recession as an opportunity to digitize your business while opportunity costs are lower
• How digital transformation can help companies thrive post-recession by increasing efficiency and resilience while streamlining decision-making
• Examples of how Battery Intelligence software is helping companies ship product during COVID-19

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

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
