Call for Papers Now Open
Governments across the globe and international automakers alike have
recently become more bullish on the future of electrified
transportation. Consequently, the technological development needed to
support vehicle electrification must keep pace with rising
expectations – batteries with enhanced performance, durability,
cost, and abuse tolerance are indeed crucial to the viability of each of
the hybrid/electric vehicle powertrains. AABC was founded to review the
status of automotive battery technology
and provide informed glimpses into the future. The AABC program
will uncover the underlying technical and business issues that will
impact the pace and path of vehicle electrification worldwide.
Lithium-ion batteries are the chief candidate for
most xEV applications. Yet, for each of them, some fundamental
questions remain:
- What are their specific anode, cathode, and electrolyte chemistries?
- Which cell design?
- Which pack design?
- Which suppliers?
- At what cost?
- In what volume for each category?
These questions will be addressed at AABC, where chief battery technologists will
present their development trends and projected battery needs, and key
suppliers will present their latest offerings and roadmaps
for the future. If you would like to be considered for a podium presentation, please submit a speaker proposal by December 2 for priority consideration.
