Session 1: Advances in Materials for Lithium-Ion Batiester -
Tuesday June 19, 9:15
Session Chairman:
Martin Winter, Chair, Applied Material Science for Energy Conversion and Storage, MEET Battery Research Center, Institute of Physical Chemistry, University of Muenster
In this session, we will review the latest developments in key Li-Ion cell materials, targeting the automotive and other large battery applications that promise to deliver enhanced performance, life, and safety, at equal or lower cost.
Session 2: Lithium-Ion Battery Safety and Reliability Enhancement and Validation -
Tuesday June 19, 14:30
Session Chairman:
Arno Perner, Head of Component Lead Engineering & Validation R&D Battery, BMW Peugeot Citroën Electrification
While battery performance and cost are receiving unprecedented attention, the safety, life, and reliability of the early installations will have the greatest impact on market acceptance for Li-Ion-powered advanced vehicles. In this session, we will discuss safety-enhancing technology and the validation of battery reliability and safety under ordinary and abusive conditions.
Session 3: Large Lithium-Ion Batteries for Stationary and Specialty Applications -
Wednesday June 20, 9:00
Session Chairman:
Dirk-Uwe Sauer, Professor, Faculty for Electrical Engineering and Information Technology, RWTH Aachen University
High-power, high-energy Li-Ion batteries are being installed into professional power tools, robots, Light Electric Vehicles (LEV) , UPS systems, and various military applications. In this session we will review this technology's commercial progress, how it impacts the high-volume automotive market, and the technological and commercial challenges it faces as it advances to capture a larger share of the specialty, LEV, military, and industrial battery markets.
