<2023> Mitigation/ Prediction/ Diagnosis of Battery Degradation, Technology Status and Related Companies

 

 

Battery degradation is the root cause of performance degradation of batteries. High-capacity and high-power batteries in particular require deep understanding about the degradation because its performance gets worse due to severe degradation.

 

Currently, concerning the degradation, development of diagnosis technology for waste batteries and fast charging has been carried out and the market has been formed.

 

Diagnosis technology is essential for reuse of waste batteries. Several OEMs have engaged in the business of reuse of waste batteries over the past several years, and many companies are preparing new businesses by using various applications where waste batteries can be reused.

 

Long battery life and short charging time are required for EVs to overcome the market share of traditional gasoline/diesel engine vehicles. These are fundamental needs that allow the battery and EV market to expand rapidly, and for this reason, mitigation/suppression technology against degradation under severe conditions is essential.

 

This report is divided into 11 chapters. Chapter 1-3 provides basic knowledge about battery degradation and needs of the technology, chapter 4-5 describe causes and effect of degradation, chapter 6-7 describe mitigation strategy for degradation and degradation diagnosis/prediction technology, chapter 10-9 describe patents and latest technology.

 

This report provides in-depth understanding of battery degradation, and introduces strategy to mitigate degradation and various technologies to diagnose and predict degradation. It also provides detailed information on Korean and international companies, markets and industry trends, and patents and notable technologies.
