Batteries in electric vehicles
Rapid growth in the electric vehicle market is one of the prerequisites for meeting the global targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving air quality in urban cities. The course is based on the increased need for batteries for electric vehicles. We handle a wide range of battery and vehicle types, ranging from passenger cars to heavy construction vehicles and trucks. You get basic knowledge of different types of batteries. Furthermore, the course analyses the type of battery that is suitable for different types of vehicles and applications. The course ends with a case study in the form of a practical risk analysis for battery management.
