The research team tested 92 commercial lithium-ion batteries for more than two years across the discharge profiles. In the end, the more realistically the profiles reflected actual driving behavior, the higher EV life expectancy climbed. Several factors contribute to the unexpected longevity, the study finds.
The complete lifecycle impacts of battery systems may be difficult to account for. While the majority of LCSA frameworks take into consideration the economic and environmental costs associated with the production, use, and disposal of batteries, they may not account for the full social impacts of battery systems.
This is not a good way to predict the life expectancy of EV batteries, especially for people who own EVs for everyday commuting, according to the study published Dec. 9 in Nature Energy. While battery prices have plummeted about 90% over the past 15 years, batteries still account for almost a third of the price of a new EV.
In essence, an in-depth assessment of the sustainability of battery life cycles serves as an essential compass that directs us toward a cleaner and more sustainable energy landscape.
Almost always, battery scientists and engineers have tested the cycle lives of new battery designs in laboratories using a constant rate of discharge followed by recharging. They repeat this cycle rapidly many times to learn quickly if a new design is good or not for life expectancy, among other qualities.
Discussion: The proposed liquid cooling structure design can effectively manage and disperse the heat generated by the battery. This method provides a new idea for the optimization of the energy efficiency of the hybrid power system. This paper provides a new way for the efficient thermal management of the automotive power battery.
