TÜV Rheinland | ConAC | Test Center for Powertrain Batteries
The laboratory of 2000 m2 will be used to carry out tests on batteries up to 800 kg
TÜV Rheinland and Aachen -based ConAC are partnering the construction of a test center for powertrain batteries. The laboratory is planned to have an area of approximately 2000 m2 making it the biggest and most modern of its kind in Europe. The investment volume is over 22 million euros. When fully operational, 25 people will be employed in the test center located in the industrial park “Avantis” in Aachen (Germany). TÜV Rheinland and ConAC are planning a joint venture for the construction and operation of the center starting from September 2021 with TÜV Rheinland as majority shareholder. The laboratory’s portfolio will include tests for batteries up to 800 kg based on mandatory specifications for type approval such as ECE R100 for the testing and certi fication of lithium-ion batteries and UN 38.3 for the transport of powertrain batteries. Further voluntary testing according to manufacturer’s specifications for additional quality assurance purposes will also be possible, for example based on the test procedure LV 124 for high voltage batteries.
The European network Ascent+ access plans to become the driver for researchers and innovators of nano-electronics. The 15 program partners, who include the TU Bergaka demie Freiberg, have formed a scientific and investment association. This is intended to open up access to the most important European infrastructures and enable researchers from science and industry to face the new challenges in nano-electronics and to accelerate innovation. An additional EU investment of 10 million euros will enable a comprehensive portfolio of access to modern processes for manufacturing and simulation, data sets, metrology and characterization as well as modular elements and test structures for nano-electronics. This drives the first stage of the Open Access program forward, which over the last four years has resulted in 100 projects with researchers from 30 countries and which has built a community of over 400 scientists.

Continuously expanded: The test systems at the two German sites offer stationary and mobile testing options for inverters
ASAP is investing in 16 new test systems for inverter testing. After extending the test laboratory in Ingolstadt, certified according to ISO/ICE 17025, and the construction of the e-mobility test center in Sachsenheim (both Germany) last year, the company group is again increasing its capacity and consistency in the testing of e-drives. Ten further test rigs for endurance testing of power electronics and electric drives have already been commissioned this year. Two new e-axle test beds will be installed in Sachsenheim by February 2021. Due to the increasing needs of OEMs and s
