Jochen Settelein, Fraunhofer ISC

Jochen Settelein leads the "Battery Testing and Analytics" group at the R&D Center for Electromobility Bavaria FZEB, at the Fraunhofer ISC in Würzburg. The department offers electrical testing of battery cells and battery modules for companies and research institutes. The environmental conditions can be varied and the change in the state of the battery cells can be examined using a wide range of sensors (temperature, pressure, expansion, ultrasound). The batteries can be opened after the test and examined using different material analysis methods. Mr. Settelein can look back on over 10 years of experience in the field of material development for batteries.
