Abstract
The increased activity in the field of Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV's) and Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV's) have led to an increase in standardization work, performed by both world-wide organizations like the IEC or the ISO, as by regional and national bodies such as CEN, CENELEC, SAE or JEVA. The issues of these standards cover several topics: safety, performance and operational/dimension issues. This paper reports a brief overview of current standardization activities of lithium batteries based on IEC 62660-1/2 and ISO 12405-1/2.
Furthermore, in this paper, a series of innovative test procedures for lithium-ion batteries are presented. Due to these tests, the general characteristics of a battery can be determined, such as charge and discharge capabilities, power performances and life cycle. Then, a new approach for extracting the life cycle of a battery in function of depth of discharge has been developed.
