IEEE Estonia Section IES/PELS/IAS/PES Chapter and IEEE Latvia Section IES/PELS/IAS Chapter are pleased to announce a series of distinguished lectures on advanced topics in electromobility that will be organized in Estonia and Latvia with support from the IEEE IES Distinguished Lecturers Program.
Topic: Smart Battery Management System for E-Mobility and Electrified Transportation
Abstract
The rapid advancement of electric mobility (e-mobility) has driven the need for more intelligent and efficient battery management systems (BMS). This talk will explore the role of AI-enabled BMS in enhancing the performance, safety, and longevity of batteries in electric vehicles. By integrating machine learning algorithms with traditional BMS, we can improve state estimation accuracy, optimize charging cycles, and predict battery health, enabling smarter balancing and thermal management. The presentation will focus on AI-driven techniques for real-time data analysis, predictive maintenance, and adaptive control, highlighting their potential to revolutionize battery management in e-mobility applications.
