Physics and data-based battery management for optimised battery utilisation

Opening Date
Deadline Date

Battery management plays an essential role by ensuring an efficient and safe battery operation. However, current battery management systems (BMS) typically rely on semi-empirical battery models (such as equivalent-circuit models) and on a limited amount of measured data. Consequently, there is currently a lack of knowledge about the overall state of the battery in operation, resulting in suboptimal utilisation.

Projects are expected to substantially advance the state of the art in the field of battery management, by developing innovative physics and data-based approaches, both at the software and hardware levels to ensure an optimised and safe utilisation of the battery system during all modes of operation.
