N2  - Electrification of transport and other energy intensive activities is of growing importance as it
provides an underpinning method to reduce carbon emissions. With an increase in reliance on
renewable sources of energy and a reduction in the use of more predictable fossil fuels in both
stationary and mobile applications, energy storage will play a pivotal role and batteries are
currently the most widely adopted and versatile form. Therefore, understanding how batteries
work, how they degrade, and how to optimize and manage their operation at large scales is
critical to achieving emission reduction targets. The electric vehicle (EV) industry requires
a considerable number of batteries even for a single vehicle, sometimes numbering in the
thousands if smaller cells are used, and the dynamics and degradation of these systems, as well
as large stationary power systems, is not that well understood. As increases in the efficiency
of a single battery become diminishing for standard commercially available chemistries, gains
made at the system level become more important and can potentially be realised more quickly
compared with developing new chemistries. Mathematical models and simulations provide a
way to address these challenging questions and can aid the engineer and designers of batteries
and battery management systems to provide longer lasting and more efficient energy storage
systems.
