White Paper: Programmable Power Solutions for Advanced Battery Testing
Higher power. Higher voltage. Greater flexibility. See why battery test labs are moving to bidirectional, regenerative power systems.
Battery testing is becoming more demanding as systems grow in power, complexity and application scope. Engineers must evaluate thermal behavior, voltage balance, charge/discharge performance and dynamic operating conditions — while keeping every result accurate and repeatable. Traditional unidirectional test systems are increasingly insufficient. This white paper shows how bidirectional, regenerative platforms support next-generation battery testing workflows, and how one architecture scales from low-power R&D through megawatt-scale validation.
What You'll Learn Inside
✅What's reshaping test infrastructure — EV growth, grid-scale BESS and solid-state chemistries.
✅The regulatory load — UN/DOT 38.3, UL 2580, IEC 62660-3, UNECE R100/R136 and more.
✅Battery emulation and HIL — any state of charge instantly, aged cells, corner-case tests safely.
✅ Source/sink and regeneration — one instrument, energy back to the grid instead of heat.
✅ Dynamic performance — what pulse and step-response testing really demand.
✅ Three platforms compared — Mi-BEAM vs. i-BEAM vs. Mi-BEAM Power Rack.
✅ Four applied use cases — pack cycling, BESS, fuel cell and BMS validation.
Who Should Read This?
Battery test engineers (cycling, lifecycle, characterization), EV powertrain validation teams (400 V/800 V architectures), BESS and renewable energy engineers (grid duty cycles), BMS and controls engineers (HIL validation), fuel cell developers, and lab/facility managers focused on throughput and energy cost.

Modern battery validation needs power systems that source, sink, regenerate and scale. See how one bidirectional architecture takes you from bench to megawatt — with minimal reconfiguration.
