Description
|
Batteries play the critical role of buffering between when electricity is produced and when it is consumed. However, despite their importance, batteries are often the least understood component in off-grid systems. Their inherent electrochemical nature means that batteries behave in non-linear, temperature- and time- dependent ways, which can easily be misunderstood or misinterpreted by engineers and technicians. The goal of this webinar is to de-mystifying batteries. We will cover practical topics like how to interpret specification sheets, how to compare battery technologies, and how to properly interpret commonly used terminology like C-rate, amphour, and depth-of-discharge.
