Improve the safety, availability and performance of your battery energy storage systems
Battery energy storage systems are now playing an integral role in the energy transition. This means it's more important than ever to gauge their performance and understand how to improve it to ensure that revenue targets can be achieved. However, this isn’t easy as a lot can go wrong. While there are many different root causes of poor availability or downtime, cell imbalances are one of the main ones. Identifying and solving problems with cell imbalances can go a long way in ensuring BESS safety and availability. In this whitepaper, we discuss the challenge of cell imbalances and how battery analytics can help to overcome it.

LFP in energy storage
Lithium-ion batteries play an essential role in the transition to renewable energies and in generating electricity from more reliable and sustainable technologies. NMC has been the widely used technology for the past years, but now LFP is increasing in popularity due to reasons such as cost and safety advantages. However, LFP comes with challenges, particularly regarding accurate state estimations.
Batteries and their Global Warming Potential: a lifecycle view
Lithium-Ion-Batteries are a key technology for green energy, mobility, and for this reason a key technology to mitigate climate change. However, batteries have a significant environmental impact. This impact is created along various steps in the lifecycle, e.g. during the extraction of raw materials or production. This white paper will explore the various stages of a battery's life cycle and how they contribute to its overall Global Warming Potential (GWP).
Enhancing EV battery safety and reliability with predictive analytics
AI-enabled analytics let you analyze, monitor, and forecast battery performance across vehicles or fleets, adding an extra layer of safety by identifying issues other systems miss and providing centralized access to all relevant battery insights.
