Description

About this certificate:

Batteries are versatile and high-potential energy storage devices that will play an important role in the ongoing transition of our energy system. One very important topic for battery application is safety. To ensure a safe operation of batteries in each application, the battery pack must be connected to a battery management system (BMS).  In this certification, you will learn why a BMS is needed for different battery technologies and look at several possible configurations. You will also learn about the communication means and advanced features of the BMS, which provide more information about the state of the battery system and guarantee that it is used optimally.

This certificate empowers you to:

  • Explain the exact need for a battery management system in a battery supported application
  • List the set of functions a BMS should support
  • Choose the best-fit hardware topology for an aimed final battery application
  • List the most important BMS components and their value for the system
  • Elaborate on the working principles of the standards on functional safety
  • List the different existing approaches for determining the SoC and explain the related difficulties
  • List some approaches on how to measure SoH and how to implement those on a battery in an application
  • Select and tune a balancing strategy based on the topology of the battery and the requirements of the application in which the battery is used
