In today’s world, where the demand for high-performance and safe batteries is constantly growing, research and development plays a crucial role in the field of battery safety.

The battery safety laboratory “BattCAVE” is setting new standards in this area.

On Friday, the 20th of September 2024, the Saxon State Minister for Regional Development, Thomas Schmidt, the Regional Councillor Barbara Eibinger-Miedl, along with the Managing Director of Joanneum Research, Heinz Mayer, had the opportunity to gain insight into the BattCAVE.

Highly accurate testing procedures
Our testing procedures are distinguished by their high precision. Using the latest technology and innovative methods, we test batteries under extreme conditions. This enables us to ensure that lithium-ion batteries will be even more reliable and safer in practical applications in the future.

Gas analyses for maximum safety
A key element of our work at BattCAVE is gas analysis. Through highly precise measurements, we can monitor and analyse the release of gases in various scenarios. This allows us to identify potential hazards and provide valuable insights for future safety measures.

Innovation as a driving force
Innovation is the driving force of our work at BattCAVE. We continuously research new approaches and testing methods to further improve battery safety. In doing so, we collaborate closely with leading industry partners and research institutions to develop the best solutions.

BattCAVE represents the highest safety standards and innovative research in the field of battery safety.

Our goal is to make future batteries even more reliable and safe in practical use.
