Cell testing is an important part of understanding the performance and life capabilities of stateof- the art energy storage technologies, particularly with respect to the distinct technical and functional requirements posed by the BTMS program. The baseline requirements for BTMS are loosely defined as a 1MWh BTMS system supporting six 350kW DC fast charging stations with no load profile defined. In order to test energy storage components and systems against these requirements, test procedures must be created that begin to address fundamental questions concerning the balance between cell performance and lifetime to minimize BTMS station cost and maximize station life. System usage scenarios are concurrently being developed with testing of baseline cells intended to illustrate their capabilities relative to a broad set of initial system assumptions. The results from these early performance tests and aging procedures will produce both slow and accelerated cycle-life aging information through a mix of empirical observations and modeling.
