Duration - 1 hour

From air transportation to electric vehicles and most recently "Hover Boards", our industry is painfully aware of the over-discharge malfunctions associated with high-energy lithium-ion batteries, yet according to recent studies, nearly 70% of all Energy Storage Systems currently deployed are lithium-ion. Avoiding the pitfalls of utilizing greater energy density in larger installations is what will be discussed. This webinar presentation will walk through the recent innovations from materials and process tracking in battery manufacturing to comprehensive control of cells in a fully deployed system. Incorporating lessons learned from recent failure investigations by the NTSB and FAA as well as new DoE mandates, the speaker will discuss how to achieve and in some areas surpass the new emerging safety certifications for a multi-megawatt energy storage system.

This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

1. Making batteries safe or making safe batteries? (control, & mitigation)
2. Cell manufacture tracking, certification and response
- NTSB & DoE analysis and current situation
3. Incorporating advanced battery management systems (BMS)
- Active cell dynamic balancing
- Cell replacement (hot-swapping)
- System reconfiguration
- Energy density scalability

A PDF copy of the presentation will be sent to all attendees after the event.
