🚗 Tier-1 suppliers have shifted their R&D and testing focus to automotive batteries, leaving mid-market innovators struggling to keep pace.
🔋 The sale and use of modern batteries demand continuous testing and analysis to track performance, safety, and degradation.
💾 Teams now face terabytes of new data every day
⚡ The global shift to electrification is accelerating fast.
Automotive OEMs and suppliers of battery packs, cells, and components face unprecedented pressure to launch more products in less time than ever before.
⚠️ As data volume grows, visibility shrinks — turning valuable battery data into a bottleneck instead of a competitive advantage.
🚘 Consumers now expect longer range, faster charging, and flawless reliability—while the industry struggles with limited engineering talent and tight budgets.
📈 The result? Compressed timelines, rising complexity, and zero margin for error in getting new battery products to market.
🔋 “Batteries are the bottleneck of the clean energy transition,” as energy leaders often note. They’re the key to replacing fossil fuels at scale.
⚡ Yet much of the world still relies on decades-old lithium-ion technology—first developed over 50 years ago and commercialized by Sony nearly 30 years ago—to power EVs, phones, laptops, and grid storage.
🏅 The pioneers behind lithium-ion even earned the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, but innovation since then has been mostly incremental.
📉 Now, the landscape is shifting fast. Battery prices have dropped 87% in the past decade, and billions in new capital are flowing into next-generation chemistries and post-lithium solutions.
💰 The lithium-ion market alone is worth ~$30 B today and is projected to quadruple in the next decade—fueling an arms race for safer, denser, and faster-charging batteries.
🔋 Our company runs extensive battery cycling and field telemetry tests—charging and discharging cells for months at a time, generating massive amounts of data.
Each battery includes sensors and electronics that log data every minute, creating millions of data points over a single test cycle.
📊 We use this data to evaluate performance, safety, and product lifecycle, but our homegrown tools couldn’t scale across global test sites.
We needed a standardized analytics platform to collect, harmonize, and analyze results securely—without building a software team from scratch.
⚙️ Energsoft delivered exactly that—a flexible, compliant analytics platform built to our requirements.
It enables data-driven decisions, faster insights, and secure collaboration across teams and partners.
💡 “Everyone wants to move off Excel. We needed a database, prediction, and fault-analytics tool that gives answers faster.
Energsoft provided that—and at a fraction of the cost of Voltaiq, with far greater customization. Their support team is responsive, knowledgeable, and resolves issues quickly.”

Battery Analytics Challenges
⚡ To truly understand batteries, you must understand their data.
Every insight starts with knowing how they’re built, how they operate, and how they perform—across thousands of cycles and countless variables.
🔬 With every charge and discharge, billions of lithium ions move like a heartbeat between cathode and anode. This delicate balance defines a battery’s life, safety, and performance.
🧩 Battery complexity keeps multiplying. Even within lithium-ion technology, there’s endless variation—form factors, chemistries, and internal designs evolve constantly.
OEMs are phasing out cobalt, adding silicon anodes, and racing toward safer, denser, faster-charging cells.
🌍 As electrification accelerates, companies across industries now depend on batteries—but choosing the right technology is harder than ever. New tools are essential to make sense of the data, extract value, and avoid billion-dollar mistakes like recalls and safety failures.
⏱️ In a world of tight launch timelines and limited engineering talent, smart battery analytics isn’t optional—it’s survival
💡 Energsoft gives you the data superpowers to do just that — spotting issues before they spark, and turning complexity into control.
🔥 When batteries go wrong, they don’t whisper — they explode. A single recall can cost billions, torch reputations, and make headlines for all the wrong reasons. ⚙️ Getting batteries right from day one isn’t easy. Timelines are tight, engineers are scarce, and every chemistry tweak adds another layer of complexity.

⚡ The energy world is flipping the switch.
Renewables are rising, consumers are becoming producers, and millions of EVs now plug in instead of fuel up.
The grid has evolved — electricity flows both ways, creating a new frontier at the edge of the grid, where utilities, devices, and data collide.
🔍 This transformation brings complexity.
Every link in the value chain — from cell suppliers to recyclers — needs traceability, testing, and trust. To stay ahead, you must master supplier qualification, electrical characterization, and environmental analysis — yet no universal standard exists for battery state of health or remaining value.
🤔 Key questions every battery leader faces:
🔋 Battery storage is the backbone of the energy transition — powering electric mobility and stabilizing renewable grids.
⚡ Lithium-ion dominates 95–99% of deployments, driven by rapid cost declines and strong performance.
NMC (Nickel-Manganese-Cobalt) batteries from brands like LG and Samsung lead in energy density and power, while Tesla’s NCA chemistry offers similar advantages.
📉 Costs have fallen 10× over the past decade, making large-scale Li-ion systems viable for both power and energy applications.
Meanwhile, LiFePO₄ (LFP) batteries continue to gain ground — improving in energy density and cost, and now competing across both short- and long-duration use cases.
⚗️ Next-generation chemistries such as Li–S, Li–O, and Mg-ion promise a major leap in energy density and charging speed — crucial for mobility applications.
🧱 Switching from liquid to solid electrolytes could further boost performance while reducing thermal runaway and fire risks, addressing one of today’s biggest battery safety challenges.
Scarcity of expertise and resources. Lack of battery quality control, application integration issues, and proper storage procedures will push batteries outside the operating window.

Narrow operating windows must be respected throughout the battery life cycle: manufacturing, application integration, battery storage, warehousing, transportation, and use. But the biggest issue is evaluations

Big Data can be used to prevent cells operating window problems that could consist of thermal runaway issue with death and lawsuits, cathode active material breakdown oxygen release and ignition.

Another possible problem venting, exothermic breakdown of electrolyte, the release of flammable gases, pressure and temperature increases, and separator melts.

Breakdown of solid electrolyte interface (SEI) Layer and Temperature rise. Lithium plating during charging, capacity loss overheating. Cascading failure occurs in the battery module without an aluminum heat sink.
Copper anode current collector dissolves cathode breakdown short circuit. Lithium plating during charging. Copper particulate contamination on battery electrode is a rare case too.

🔋 As lithium-ion technology evolves, its use — and risk — continue to grow.
Higher energy density and wider adoption demand precise testing, modeling, and monitoring to predict electrochemical, thermal, and mechanical behavior.
⚙️ Ensuring safety now requires data-driven collaboration across R&D, manufacturing, and regulation — uniting engineers, scientists, and policymakers to prevent failures before they happen.
