Summary of the lecture
Learn to analyze welding methods using Life Cycle Assessment to compare energy use, materials, and emissions in EV battery manufacturing through a self-paced microlearning module.
This course introduces how Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is used to evaluate the environmental impact of welding methods in EV battery enclosure manufacturing. It explains the key stages of LCA and compares different joining technologies based on energy consumption, material use, and emissions. Learners explore how factors such as electricity use and filler materials influence global warming and acidification impacts, and how these insights support more sustainable, data-driven decisions in automotive production.
