Batteries Expertise Across Industries & Applications

Exponent has developed custom battery testing for everything from submarine batteries to power packs for space stations. Equipped with failure analysis insights from the past 50+ years, we're here to help you understand the data and the science so you can get ahead of vulnerabilities, ranging from design to manufacturing, product release, and post-market surveillance.

The Exponent Difference

Everything You Need, in One Place

Everything You Need, in One Place

An extensive global network is particularly important for battery testing, since batteries can't be shipped easily (or at all). Our experts, equipment, and test facilities enable us to bring solutions to the battery, wherever it is.
Go Bigger, Faster

Go Bigger, Faster

Exponent has the unique ability to scale up for tests of all sizes, which is critical in industries like electric vehicles and utilities. Clients often come to us for our capabilities and to fill voids that they can't manage in-house.
Don't Settle for Standard Tests

Don't Settle for Standard Tests

Standards don't keep pace with innovation or uncover all potential product weaknesses. Our tests are tailored so you can identify vulnerabilities early on in the design phase and address them before it's too late.
Unique Multidisciplinary Expertise

Nowhere else will you find this depth and breadth of scientific, engineering, and regulatory talent, all working together to uncover insights into your battery challenges.
Robust Failure Analysis Insights

Robust Failure Analysis Insights

Exponent brings decades of failure analysis data and insights to battery testing. Because knowing what could go wrong — not just what will go wrong — empowers you to invest in the right areas.
Talent at the Forefront of Innovation

Talent at the Forefront of Innovation

We assemble teams of highly credentialed scientists and engineers to ensure the analytical rigor you need. Many of our consultants are pioneers in their fields and recognized experts who advise on standards, committees, and boards.

How We Help

Passing a standard battery test doesn't tell you what could go wrong or even how your product will perform in the field. Our science and engineering teams design custom tests for everything from medical devices to electric vehicles, proactively getting ahead of risks to help protect your business and customers.
