Most presentations on off-highway electrification stop at the delivery note. This one starts there. Drawing on years of field experience with battery packs deployed across construction, material handling and industrial equipment in real working conditions, this session presents what actually happens to battery systems after they leave the factory – not in lab conditions but on active worksites where machines get in accidents, and batteries are exposed to fire, are dropped from trucks during transportation and fall from cranes. The audience will leave with a clear picture of what off-highway batteries have to endure under real abuse conditions.

• Real-life battery abuse conditions
• How a battery reacts
• Battery design implications
• How to ensure safety by design
