He joined Continental AG in Berlin in 2005 and became senior technical expert in battery technology and team leader in cell technology, and in 2010 was appointed Head of battery module and electromechanics.

Battery safety is a multilevel approach along the value chain from materials to pack aspects. This workshop will treat the safety demands for each part of the value chain and discuss, which safety approach is satisfying. In particular we will speak about safety demands for:

• Raw materials (purity)
• Cell components
• Modules
• Battery Packs

A particular aspect will be a separate view on BoL (Begin of Life) and EoL (End of Life) and second life.

48 V could not only be the mandatory on board supply system solution for tomorrow but also the mass market HEV technology. There are special demands on cell technology, packaging and installation space (e.g. under the hood). In the workshop we will discuss the optimal cell choice (chemistry, housing, dimensions, energy, power, lifetime, safety) as well as pack level demands (volume, thermal management, installation space) and do a cost analysis. This will be done separately for 48 V as advanced on board supply system as well as for future low voltage HEV generations.
