About this event
As the global demand for battery energy storage systems (BESS) rises, so does the risk for manufacturing complications. New suppliers, factories, and production line technology and workers are deployed at increasingly rapid rates – resulting in increased defects and other issues that may lead to underperformance and safety risks.
In the past 6 years, CEA has performed factory quality audits on over 30GWh of BESS projects, employing a multi-faceted approach to target these issues. Our findings at each manufacturing stage highlight common quality issues that may cause commissioning delays, excessive degradation and even thermal events and fires.
In this webinar, CEA’s BESS experts will share the most common issues that we see in the factory, their typical root causes, and what steps can be taken during the manufacturing process to prevent these issues.
