Best Practices – Scaling your EV Battery Program for Optimal Effectiveness
The ability to scale a battery program for agility and efficiency is crucial, particularly within the rapidly evolving EV market. Key to achieving this scale is the use of data generated throughout battery development to inform optimal, rapid decision making. A new class of software, the Battery Intelligence System (BIS), is now in commercial production helping organizations unlock the value of their data to achieve scale. This webinar will provide an introduction to BIS and offer valuable insight on how to best leverage the data your organization is already generating to keep your battery program nimble and efficient.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• A review of current industry challenges
• An introduction to Battery Intelligence Systems (BIS) that unify data and provide immediate access to data-driven insights for decision making
• A review of best practices to help teams standardize processes and increase organizational efficiency
• An overview of management tools to track and optimize battery programs

Lithium Ion Capacitors – Combining Energy with Power
FREE Webinar – JSR Micro, Inc. is a proud sponsor of this event.
Lithium Ion Capacitors (LIC) are hybrids of electric double-layer capacitors (EDLCs) and lithium ion batteries (LIB). Combining the reversible non-Faradaic cathode from an EDLC and the reversible Faradaic anode from an LIB results in an ultra or super capacitor with significantly increased energy density, improved float performance and low self-discharge rates. Avoiding the lithium metal oxide cathodes from LIB’s improves the inherent safety and eliminates Cobalt content, however still combines aspects of energy & power of both cell types. The Faradaic intercalation/deintercalation reactions at the anode are capable of generating a significant amount of charge, while the non-Faradaic electrostatic storage of the electrical energy formed at the interface of the electrode and the electrolyte, known as an electric double layer, results in fast charge and discharge capabilities for hundreds of thousands, if not millions of cycles.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• What is an LIC? Technology Introduction
• Key Benefits
• Safety
• EDLC vs LIC
• Applications

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

Approaches to Recovering Critical Materials From Spent Lithium-Ion Batteries
FREE Webinar – Li-Cycle is a proud sponsor of this event.
As the world transitions towards sustainability and low carbon emissions, lithium-ion batteries are being used across a broad spectrum of products and industries. The automotive industry, in particular, estimates 559 million of electric vehicles will be on the road by 2040. Consequently, lithium-ion battery waste is forecasted to hit over 11 million tonnes by 2030.
How can the world deal with this oncoming tsunami of lithium-ion batteries?
The audience will have the answer after this webinar as this presentation will walk through both global and future approaches to dealing with end-of-life batteries and explore the importance of recovering critical materials from lithium-ion batteries to meet future demand.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Global end-of-life lithium-ion battery market opportunity
• Recycling vs reuse
• Incumbent technologies for ‘recycling’ lithium-ion batteries
• New technologies and techniques for recycling lithium-ion batteries
• Comparative benefits of recycling technologies
