Testing and characterisation

In our dedicated laboratory space for battery cells, packs and systems testing, we undertake electrochemical testing of commercial batteries as well as design and discover new battery advances (high energy batteries, sustainable batteries, safer materials for batteries).

We have over 500 channels for testing batteries in chambers at fixed temperatures. Some of the channels have access to high-voltage (≤60 V) or high-current (≤100 A) tests.

Other than electrochemical testing, various characterisation instruments enable us to conduct further analyses of batteries to understand the relationship between battery performance and battery components deeply. Some of our characterisation capabilities include:

• thermal diagnostics of batteries (coin, pouch and cylindrical cells)
• abuse testing of batteries
• post-mortem failure analyses.
