What you will take away

• Overview of trends in articles (solid-state, LFP/LMFP, sodium-ion) and their impact on the design of real systems, including links to hybrid energy ecosystems.
• A practical framework for dimensioning BESS in combination with PV, wind turbines, and cogeneration, including cooling/BTMS and roles in power balance (Lex OZE III).
• Guidelines for choosing chemistry and battery design in mobile applications with different driving profiles.
• Testing methodologies (including accelerated aging), linking measurements and simulations, and life prediction procedures in Simcenter Amesim — with impacts on the entire ecosystem, including H2 (electrolyzers/fuel cells).
• Specific integration scenarios and recommendations for PV + WE + BESS + cogeneration + H2 systems.
