FOREWORD
This manual was prepared by and for the FreedomCAR Program
Electrochemical Energy Storage Team. It is based on the goals established for
FreedomCAR energy storage development and is similar (with some important changes) to an earlier manual for the former Partnership for a New Generation of
Vehicles (PNGV) program. The specific procedures were developed primarily to characterize the performance of energy storage devices relative to the
FreedomCAR requirements. However, it is anticipated that these procedures will have some utility for characterizing hybrid energy storage device behavior in general. A continuing need to improve these procedures is expected. This first
