Qualification of high-voltage storage systems
Enabling E-Mobility
The validation of HV storage systems is indispensable during the development process.
How you benefit from IABG during your development process
- We accompany you during the whole development with the required environmental, safety, abuse, performance, and life cycle tests.
- We support you in design and evaluation of the storage system in your product.
- Aggregated services in simulation, failure analysis, and waste management may complete your qualification process.
