The operating voltage (expressed in volts) of a battery is the pressure that pushes the lithium-ions out of the negative electrode to migrate to the positive electrode. Lithium-ion NMC (nickel-manganese-cobalt)/graphite batteries have a nominal voltage range of between 3.5 and 3.7 volts. The total voltage of the entire battery system of an electric vehicle is from 400 to 800 volts. The performance of a battery is the initial branch covering the battery’s essential characteristics: Energy density: the energy…
