Abstract:
The concern for the environment and energy has led to a significant increase in research on electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). The main challenges that need to be addressed to popularize these advanced vehicles are related to the battery. Since the early 1990s, we have been actively promoting research and development on batteries for environmentally friendly vehicle applications. Initially, the focus was on lithium-ion batteries as a potential solution to the critical battery issue mentioned earlier. Through extensive theoretical studies and numerous experimental demonstrations, we have successfully demonstrated that the potential of lithium-ion batteries exists and can be realized. This has opened up new possibilities and values that cannot be achieved with conventional batteries. This article aims to clarify the specific performance requirements of advanced batteries for EVs or HEVs, with a particular emphasis on the critical aspects of thermal design and construction for ensuring system stability. Furthermore, it highlights the significant improvements made in the power output of lithium-ion batteries for their application in HEVs.
