NEXTBMS : NEXT-generation physics and data-based Battery Management Systems for optimised battery utilization

The EU aims to become an economy with net-zero greenhouse gas emissions, achieving climate neutrality by 2050. Batteries will
enable this clean energy transition by helping to decarbonise transport and enabling a higher uptake of renewable energy technologies.
Therefore, the electrification of the European economy and society, both in transport and stationary storage sectors, has resulted in an
expensive growth of the European battery industry (from battery cell manufacturers to recycling and second use companies). Achieving
optimal utilisation of battery systems (by increasing the operational and lifetime usage window and reducing cost via a more efficient
and appropriate use of materials) benefits not only the environment but also the end-users. The overall NEXTBMS aim is to develop an
advanced battery management systems (BMS) built on fundamental knowledge and experience with the physicochemical processes of
lithium-ion batteries, which will enable the significant enhance of current modelling approaches, including the readiness for upcoming
lithium (Li) battery material developments.
