Batteries are at the heart of any electric vehicle. Their design determines the vehicle's range, charging speed, performance in cold weather, fire safety and many other properties. The speed of development has been immense, as new cell chemistries such as LFP, sodium-ion and solid state batteries are pushing into the market. Significant progress has been made with monitoring battery usage with a view to design optimization so that the battery performance is maximized without accelerating the ageing process. In this session, we share insights on the performance of today's vehicle batteries and future technological developments.
