Advanced Higher Education for Battery Lifecycle and Sustainability Consortium
Off-Grid Solar Energy Storage
You need a battery for storing solar energy in an off-grid house. The system must tolerate partial charging,
offer long cycle life, and work well in variable weather.
Lightweight Drone Power System
You are designing a compact, lightweight battery system for a commercial drone that must fly for extended periods.
Hybrid Vehicle Battery
You are designing a battery for a hybrid car that needs good energy storage, moderate weight, and strong performance over time.
Space-Constrained Medical Device
You're designing a medical monitoring device that requires a small, high-performance battery with excellent reliability and long shelf life.
Portable Medical Diagnostic Device
You are developing a handheld diagnostic tool for field hospitals that must be lightweight, long-lasting, and rechargeable.
Backup Power for a Home Solar System
You're designing a home solar power system that must store energy for nighttime use and offer high efficiency, long life, and low maintenance.
Grid-Scale Energy Storage in a Cold Climate
You’re tasked with selecting batteries for a renewable energy installation in a remote, cold region. The batteries must function in low temperatures and provide high cycle life and reliability.
Portable Device with Frequent Power Bursts
You're developing an industrial-grade handheld tool that requires frequent bursts of high power and must endure temperature extremes and abusive handling.
Battery for a Start-Stop System in a Modern Car
You're designing the battery system for a compact passenger car equipped with a start-stop system (the engine turns
off at red lights and restarts automatically). The battery must deliver frequent high bursts of current, recharge quickly, and withstand
constant cycling in varying traffic conditions.
Emergency Power Supply for a Remote Medical Clinic
You're selecting a battery system for an off-grid medical clinic in a developing region. It must support essential
medical equipment during outages, endure deep discharges, be easy to maintain, and offer good performance over time with limited
technical supervision.
