AVL SIMpulse: Safety, Longevity, Affordability – Cracking the Battery Code

In many markets, battery electric vehicles have yet to achieve the same level of acceptance as combustion engine vehicles. To make them more competitive, it is essential to reduce the cost of EVs and build confidence in their safety. As the battery accounts for approximately a third of the total cost of the vehicle, it represents the biggest opportunity for optimization — balancing safety, high-capacity retention and affordability.

A key focus of this optimization is to address critical issues such as thermal runaway and battery aging. Ensuring safety and long-term performance requires creating batteries that not only counter thermal runaway, but also retain their capacity over time.  This is where simulation becomes indispensable — not just as a tool, but as a central driver of progress in battery development.

Finding cost-effective solutions to these challenges can be complex. Simpler 1D simulations provide quick answers, enabling faster decisions and shorter development cycles. On the other hand, detailed 3D CFD simulations offer a deeper level of precision, essential for modelling complex phenomena such as thermal runaway. Each approach has its trade-offs, and success lies in balancing meaningful results with the time and resources required for development.

Join us for this SIMpulse online event, where our battery development experts will share insights and strategies for overcoming these challenges and driving innovation in battery technology.
