Significant advances in battery technology are driving a massive transformation of the energy sector, enabling the cost-effective deployment of stationary battery energy storage systems (BESS) to increase the penetration of intermittent renewable sources into the power grid, reduce electricity costs, and allow fast-charging infrastructure for electric vehicles (EVs). BESS technologies will also transform the energy security of Canada's northern/remote Indigenous communities that rely mostly on diesel-generated energy systems. Canada is well positioned to accelerate BESS adoption as it makes major strides towards its national emission targets in its fight against climate change. We have partnered with eCAMION, a leading Canadian BESS manufacturer, to jointly develop a novel digital-physical framework for BESS that combines physics- and data-based hierarchical thermal modelling methodologies, design optimization, and cost-effective characterization of beginning-of-life and lifecycle battery performance. We will leverage this framework to demonstrate the next generation of modular BESS suitable for the extreme hot/cold climate of Canada's urban and northern/remote regions, while maintaining superior performance, enhanced safety, and extended lifetime. Placing environmental and social issues at the forefront, we will bring a paradigm shift in the thermal design and optimization of BESS by combining engineering and social considerations at the earliest stage of battery design and by working with social scientists and northern/remote Indigenous communities to enrich our models. eCAMION will incorporate this Alliance project's innovations into its products and test and distribute them through its established network in Canada and globally. Canada will benefit economically and socially from the resulting fault-tolerant and climate-proof BESS technology, which will help accelerate the use of EVs, decrease emission-generating energy sources, provide reliable energy storage for renewable energy in northern/remote Indigenous communities, and help our country achieve its public targets for emission reductions.

电池技术的重大进步正在推动能源行业的大规模转型，使固定电池储能系统（BESS）的成本效益部署能够增加间歇性可再生能源对电网的渗透，降低电力成本，并允许电动汽车（EV）的快速充电基础设施。BESS技术还将改变加拿大北方/偏远土著社区的能源安全，这些社区主要依赖柴油发电系统。加拿大有能力加快BESS的采用，因为它在应对气候变化方面朝着国家排放目标迈出了重大步伐。我们已与加拿大领先的BESS制造商eCAMION合作，共同为BESS开发一种新颖的数字物理框架，该框架结合了基于物理和数据的分层热建模方法、设计优化以及对寿命和生命周期电池性能的成本效益表征。我们将利用这一框架来展示下一代模块化BESS，该BESS适用于加拿大城市和北方/偏远地区的极热/极冷气候，同时保持上级性能、增强的安全性和延长的使用寿命。将环境和社会问题放在首位，我们将在电池设计的最早阶段结合工程和社会因素，并与社会科学家和北方/偏远的土著社区合作，丰富我们的模型，从而实现BESS热设计和优化的范式转变。eCAMION将把该联盟项目的创新融入其产品中，并通过其在加拿大和全球建立的网络进行测试和分销。加拿大将从由此产生的容错和耐气候的BESS技术中获得经济和社会利益，这将有助于加速电动汽车的使用，减少产生排放的能源，为北方/偏远土著社区的可再生能源提供可靠的能源储存，并帮助我国实现其减排的公共目标。
