Description
About this certification:
Change is happening fast in the field of energy storage. As our technology develops, the need for effective ways to store energy is evident.
The Understanding Energy Storage: The Battery Revolution certification aims to provide you with knowledge on the most promising energy storage technologies, such as batteries, how they can help address these needs, and how they affect the future of the transportation and power sectors. Specifically, you will explore why energy storage is important. You will examine how the battery revolution is already underway, and what this means for our society and the environment. You will look briefly into the lithium-ion battery production supply chain and manufacturing process. Then, you will examine four applications of energy storage: electric vehicles, home storage, industrial applications (specifically, underground mining), and local energy systems. After reviewing investment scenarios around energy storage, you will explore end-of-life questions for batteries such as reuse and recycling.
This certification empowers you to:
- Apply knowledge of current status and developments in energy storage and how they can affect the power and transportation sectors
- Describe the supply chain in large-scale lithium-ion battery production
- Describe the current trends in the electric vehicle market and identify different types of EV charging
- Outline basic behind-the-meter grid integration services
- Identify the benefits of battery energy storage solutions in underground mining
- List factors impacting investments in battery storage
- Describe options for battery end-of-life
