Overview
What you will study
The Batteries course offered by KTH Royal Institute of Technology is carried out mainly through lectures and a larger project. The project includes experimental and calculation tasks, and a smaller literature study which is presented orally and in a written report. The final grade is based on a written exam and the project.
For a passing grade, after completing the course, students must be able to:
- Describe the principle of operation, performance measures and characterisation methods for batteries.
- Explain and calculate how operating conditions, material choice and design affect the battery's properties.
- Discuss application areas and system aspects, compare and evaluate different battery technologies, and to inform about the technology.
Programme Structure
The program focuses on:
- Basic principles of electrochemical energy storage
- Different types of batteries
