Hawaii Natural Energy Institute Seminar Series

"A Roadmap to Estimate Service Life of Energy Storage Systems" by Bor Yann Liaw, specialist, Hawaii Natural Energy Institute, School of Ocean and Esarth Science and Technology.

This presentation will attempt to show a roadmap to bridge laboratory and real life battery testing data and analyses into a coherent approach which can allow us to develop a realistic model to simulate battery performance, including life prediction in real applications.

Using electric vehicle field testing results, we explain how to handle real-life data through driving cycle analysis to establish a “building block” scheme that can be validated with test results obtained in the laboratory. We also show that a simple battery model can be built upon laboratory test data and validated with real-life duty cycles, and, therefore, more realistic understanding of battery performance can be derived.

The building blocks that can be validated with both laboratory and real-life data can then be used to synthesize any hypothetical duty cycle for simulation of battery performance in future applications.
