Batteries remain the most important single element in the growing future market of electric vehicles and hybrids. For some years now, Li-Ion batteries have become the current standard, providing a lot of power due to their reactive components. On the other hand these materials might cause safety issues like thermal runaways or short circuits. A few incidents have resulted in growing public concern. In order to reach the mass market for electr...

With ever more stringent emissions targets being introduced and a corresponding surge in EV and HEV production globally, an in-depth understanding and optimised utilisation of the battery management system (BMS) is more important than ever. In the race to optimise performance and reduce costs, an intelligent battery management system is necessary to lengthen battery life, thereby reducing the vehicle cost over its entire lifetime. Successful c...
