Energy Flexibility in Battery Cell Manufacturing
Abstract
Battery cell manufacturing consists of several energy intensive processes. With the global demand for batteries rising, manufacturing companies continuously seek for new strategies to improve their competitive advantage, reduce costs and boost their environmental performance. This paper assesses high-volume battery cell manufacturing for potentials to increase energy flexibility. The flexible change of energy carriers in the drying of electrodes and the use of advanced production planning and scheduling as well as storing energy in the formation process are identified to achieve highest potentials. Results of this paper contribute to the design and operation of battery cell manufacturing plants.
