Program Overview
According to a research, the global electric vehicle battery market size was valued at $23 billion in 2017 and is projected to reach at $84 billion by 2025, growing at a CAGR of 17.2% from 2018 to 2025. The emergence of Lithium-ion technology has fueled the growth rate for batteries over the last two decades. While initial hybrid vehicles used Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries, Li-ion batteries have been the primary solutions for automakers to power plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVS) and battery electric vehicles (BEVs). High-energy density, charge retention capacity, and low maintenance are some of the benefits that have accelerated the growth of Li-ion as a battery technology. Automobile manufacturers introducing BEVs and PHEVs in the EV battery market are further enhancing the technology and are anticipated to offer Li-ion powered solutions as a primary power source in their vehicles.
Attend this Masterclass and learn about the degradation prediction and repurposing of EV Batteries.
Session Overview (Day 1: Degradation Prediction in Li-ion Batteries)
Degradation prediction in Li-ion batteries is a challenging and highly nonlinear problem. Traditional physics based approaches and tools need several design, electrochemical and degradation parameters and long computation times which make this approach expensive. Pure machine learning requires huge amounts of data and using real life drive cycles is still not possible. During this session, we will explain how a hybrid approach can be used to perform accurate capacity fade modeling at a fraction of the time and cost of traditional methods providing you both speed and accuracy.
Session Overview (Day 2: Opportunities in Repurposing of EV batteries)
After a battery’s first life in a car and before it is recycled, it can be reused, refurbished, and repurposed. If the battery isn’t damaged during its use in an EV, such as in a car accident, these batteries have additional usable capacity – an estimated 80% of the original rated capacity. This means that if the battery was manufactured to store 100 kWh, it can now store up to 80 kWh. In order to make use of the remaining capacity, the batteries can be broken down to salvage smaller components for reuse and refurbishment, or they can be repurposed and used in a less demanding application, such as stationary storage. During this session, we will explain how this technology works and what are the business use cases around the same.
