product AVL E-STORAGE LV The AVL E-STORAGE LV is a low-voltage variant from the successful E-STORAGE product family and an indispensable product for the development of future sustainable 48 V powertrains. 2 8 F O C U S > With the new E-STORAGE LV AVL is now offering a modern tool to carry out 48 V key component benchmarking and independent component characterization. Over the course of the last 3 years AVL has been heavily involved in 48 V hybrid powertrain development programs. A 48 V system is an upcoming trend that allows significant CO2 reduction through electric hybridization of the drivetrain with an acceptable additional cost. A battery with a maximum voltage below a critical threshold of 60 V is combined with an e-motor that is used for regeneration of the kinetic energy and optimization of the usage of the IC engine. Since 48 V still is a new technology area and performance characteristics of the key components (48 V BSG - and E-Storage emulator systems) vary across suppliers it is very important for AVL to gain knowledge about the behavior/characteristics of these components in order to support OEMs in component supplier assessment with an objective view on component performance “Until now we had to trust manufacturer data only”. With the new product (AVL E-STORAGE LV) AVL SCHRICK is now able to carry out 48 V key component benchmarking and independent component characterization. In situations where the battery is not available or electrical power from an
