Charging Advancements and Battery Safety

Safely charging batteries in a reasonable time requires the thoughtful design of the battery by the OEM. We will talk about a healthy battery's environmental, thermal, and runaway prevention testing considerations for design. Our discussion will cover trade-offs between popular design concepts and charger to vehicle interfaces. We will end our talk on the collaboration humanity needs to charge forward with EVs. 

Takeaways:

• Prevention of fires starts with battery design
• Higher or lower battery system voltage trade-offs
• How to determine a cell safe maximum charge rates
• Power-sharing to form a charging utopia
