Monolith, About:Energy team on AI models for next-generation EV batteries
Two of the UK’s leading electric vehicle (EV) technology start-ups are working on AI models to speed up the development of batteries for electric vehicles.
The R&D teams plan to develop pre-trained artificial intelligence (AI) models in Monolith platform using precise, advanced battery data from About:Energy
With datasets from numerous batteries, About:Energy’s battery data is more robust than industry standard and the partnership will enhance manufacturer ability to understand the intractable physics of batteries
Pre-trained models can deliver more accurate predictions for battery degradation and thermal runaway, reducing number of tests and associated costs while improving battery performance and safety. Using AI to make predictions for battery degradation and thermal propagation result in a lower number of tests, reduced testing costs, and improved battery performance and safety.
- AI recommendation engine slashes battery test
- About:Energy raises £1.5m for battery data
- Battery design platform is technology agnostic
The immediate focus for the partnership is automotive, with the potential to roll out to other transport sectors such as micromobility and aerospace.
“Our partnership with About:Energy allows us to build more accurate models predicting battery degradation and thermal runaway, using the most robust and reliable battery test data available to engineers,” said Dr. Richard Ahlfeld, CEO and founder of Monolith. “Whether you are an automotive OEM looking for more comprehensive data, a battery manufacturer, or an EV start-up without test facilities, our pre-trained AI models promise to help optimise your battery validation test plans, and ultimately accelerate the availability of better EVs.”
“At About:Energy, we have developed technologies to obtain battery data of world-leading quality. This partnership with Monolith is a testament to our commitment to driving innovation and adding significant value to the industry and our customers,” said Gavin White, CEO and Co-Founder of About:Energy.
“We are always seeking innovative collaborations that help tackle the industry’s toughest challenges. Working with Monolith gives industry the access to the best machine-learning talent and highest quality lab data in an easy-to-use software package,” he added.
The two companies are planning a joint demonstration of the co-developed AI models at the end of the month.
