The Battery Testing Laboratory features state-of-the-art equipped facilities for analysing performance of battery materials and cells. Battery cell performance testing – cell cycling and performance evaluation under normal, but varying, environmental operating conditions.
Capacity testing determines the amp-hour capacity of the battery between a set maximum and minimum voltage under at a predetermined discharge rate. The energy capacity, usually in kilowatt-hours (kWh), is the maximum amount of stored energy for a specified discharge rate over a set voltage range.
Battery cell performance testing – cell cycling and performance evaluation under normal, but varying, environmental operating conditions. This facility will include in-situ thermal imaging, electrochemical measurements, cell preparation, pre- and post-test battery cell tear-down and post-mortem diagnosis.
