Battery performance, life cycle, and sustainability are critical aspects of zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs), especially as the world transitions from fossil fuel-based transportation to cleaner alternatives. The core component of most ZEVs is the rechargeable battery, usually a lithium-ion battery, which dictates vehicle range, efficiency, safety, and overall environmental impact. Understanding the factors that influence these aspects is essential for improving technology, reducing costs, and ensuring long-term sustainability. One of the primary factors affecting battery performance is the type of battery chemistry used. Lithium-ion batteries are most common due to their high energy density, good cycle life, and relatively low self-discharge. However, even within lithium-ion technology, variations exist such as lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO₄), lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide (NMC), and lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide (NCA). Each type has different performance characteristics. For instance, NMC and NCA offer higher energy density, which translates to longer driving ranges, but they are more sensitive to high temperatures and fast charging cycles, which can accelerate degradation. LiFePO₄, on the other hand, is more thermally stable and safer, but its lower energy density limits the range, which affects vehicle design considerations. Temperature plays a crucial role in battery performance and longevity. Batteries operate optimally within a specific temperature range, typically between 20°C and 40°C. Exposure to extreme heat can accelerate chemical reactions inside the battery, leading to faster degradation, capacity loss, and even thermal runaway, which is a safety hazard. Conversely, extremely low temperatures reduce the battery’s ability to deliver energy efficiently, lowering range and performance temporarily. Modern ZEVs often include thermal management systems that regulate battery temperature through liquid or air cooling to maintain optimal performance and extend battery life. Charging patterns significantly influence battery life and efficiency. Frequent fast charging at high voltages and currents can lead to the growth
