Abstract
NREL's R and D 100 Award-winning Isothermal Battery Calorimeters (IBCs) are the only calorimeters in the world capable of providing the precise thermal measurements needed for safer, longer lasting,and more cost-effective electric-drive vehicle batteries. As drivers continue to demand ever-more-green but affordable car models, NREL -- in partnership with NETZSCH Instrument North America and with support from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) -- is using IBCs to help industry design better thermal management systems for energy storage cells, modules, and packs for these electric-drive vehicles.
