Spiers New Technology Maximizes The Value Of Used Advanced Batteries Dirk Spiers, a problem solver with a passion for renewable energy, saw the popularity of EVs rise, but noticed a problem that wasn‘t getting a lot of attention. Used EV batteries were being cast aside, their useful lives cut short because they weren‘t being repaired or refurbished. Tossing aside used batteries can cause numerous negative effects, including the lost value that could have been drawn from the discarded units and environmental harm. The ABC-150 became an essential component to the Spiers New Technology 4R system of repairing, remanufacturing, refurbishing and repurposing advanced batteries. Compatible with different battery chemistries, SNT was able to reliably test approximately 10,000 battery modules on a weekly basis, making the ABC-150 ideal for their unique operations.

The ABC-150 was originally developed to support the design and development of the drivetrain and subsystems of the GM Impact, the first modern electric car. The ABC-150 offers power up to 125kW, with a voltage range of 8 to 445VDC and a current range of ±530ADC. The ABC-150 is now the worldwide standard for the testing of advanced batteries, fuel cells, capacitors and other alternative energy technologies in the automotive, aerospace, stationary power and defense industries.

Working with a versatile and reliable test system is key for Spiers New Technology’s 4R operations.
