Lithium Battery Reliability for Power Tools: Engineering a
Why Power-Tool Duty Cycles Break Packs Differently
As a senior lithium battery engineer at Horizon Power, I have spent the better part of a decade qualifyi…
Battery Solution Integration for Robotics
I have lost count of how many robotics programs I have joined at the point where the cells were already chosen, the capacity was already approved, and the…
Sodium-Ion Battery Testing for Microgrids: A Field
When our team at Horizon Power first deployed a sodium-ion battery bank for a remote island microgrid in early 2024, I expected the commissioning to feel f…
Semi-Solid State Battery Cost Optimization for EV Packs (2)
I have spent the better part of a decade on both sides of the battery cost conversation — designing quasi-solid cells on the lab bench and, more rece…

Home Energy Storage Reliability for Apartments: Engineering Long-Life Residential Battery Systems
When I spec a home energy storage system for a detached…
Sodium-Ion Battery Design for Microgrids
I have spent the last eleven years designing battery systems, and the projects that taught me the most were not the elegant ones. They were the rural micro…
Battery Solution Safety for Robotics
I have spent the last eleven years designing lithium battery packs for industrial equipment, and the robotics programmes are the ones that keep me up at ni…
Semi-Solid State Battery Reliability for EV Packs (Guide)
When an OEM qualifies a new cell chemistry, the lab cycle-life number is the easy part. The hard part — and the part that actually decides warranty cost, b…
Drone Battery Reliability for Mapping UAVs: Engineering (3)
When a mapping UAV loses power at 120 meters, it rarely loses just the aircraft. It loses the orthomosaic you were building, the ground-control points you…
