Li-ion battery experts from the Fraunhofer Institute for Transportation and Infrastructure Systems collaborated with ViriCiti, which is engaged in real-time data research on electromotive force, to extend the service life of lithium batteries and reduce the total cost of ownership of electric buses and electric trucks.

　　According to foreign media reports, lithium-ion battery experts from the Fraunhofer Institute for Transportation and Infrastructure (IVI) collaborated with ViriCiti, which is engaged in real-time data research on electromotive force, to extend the service life of lithium batteries while reducing The total cost of ownership of electric buses and electric trucks.

　　``In order to prevent early degradation of lithium batteries, researchers will focus on power, temperature, depth-of-discharge (DOD) and state of charge (State of Charge, SOC). In the report, the researchers also analyzed in detail the battery usage during the lithium battery evaluation period and the negative factors of the imaging battery's service life.

　　The report also talked about how to use electric vehicle charging and operating mechanisms to reduce battery pressure and extend its service life. In order to extend the service life of the battery as much as possible, the operating cost of electric vehicles will be reduced accordingly. Compared with diesel vehicles, electric buses and electric trucks are more competitive.

　　The Fraunhofer Institute is the largest application-oriented research institution in Europe, with 72 institutes and research units. Fraunhofer IVI in Dresden focuses on studying the health of lithium-ion batteries, mainly in the field of traction batteries for electric vehicles.

　　ViriCiti is an IT company that supports operators of electric buses and electric trucks and uses data-insights to optimize their operations. The company analyzes and stores massive amounts of vehicle data at speeds up to milliseconds. ViriCiti provides detailed input values for battery evaluation. ViriCiti is headquartered in Amsterdam and recently added two new offices in the United States.
