Seat has begun work on its future Test Centre Energy, a new automotive battery laboratory that will be located at the Seat plant in Martorell.
The new centre will develop and test various energy systems for electric and hybrid vehicles and has a testing capacity that can reach 1.3MW. The building is slated for completion by April 2021, will have an area of around 1,500sqm, and include different test spaces for the evaluation of cell modules with lithium-ion technology, medium and high voltage batteries, as well as different chargers used in the entire range of electrified vehicles.
There are also plans for several climatic chambers that will enable the batteries and modules to be tested under extreme thermal conditions, simulating the different environments a car may experience during its life cycle. A high-tech electronics lab will also design and manufacture prototypes and build interfaces for the test systems.
