A single company or single group of companies, hereafter known as the "Subcontractor" must be able to fulfill the identified tasks listed in this statement of work for the Energy Storage System for the Electric Drive and Advanced Battery (EDAB) Testbed Vehicle. Three Subcontractors are requested to each provide only one Energy Storage System (ESS). This is a total of three ESSs. Each ESS shall be capable of supplying the power and energy requirements of the Electric Drive and Advanced Battery Testbed (EDAB) vehicle for on-road testing. The tasks include providing one Energy Storage System (ESS) that meets the requirements set forth below as well as provide operating information and communication messaging for proper functionality. The details of the required tasks are specified in section 1.2. The EDAB vehicle is specifically designed to test ESS designed for light duty sedans, light duty SUVs, and light duty pickup trucks during on-road driving and is capable of testing other electric drive components during on-road driving. The EDAB vehicle is capable of operating in several modes of operation including Plug-in Hybrid Vehicle operation (PHEV), Extended Range Electric Vehicle operation (EREV), and Battery Electric Vehicle operation (BEV). The EDAB vehicle is configured and calibrated for each system of components under test. •1.2 Work Included •1.2.1 Provide Energy Storage System for On-Road Vehicle Testing The Subcontractor shall provide one energy storage system (ESS) intended for vehicle operation during on-road driving and laboratory reference performance testing (RPT). The ESS shall fulfill the requirements as detailed in Appendix A. The ESS shall be intended for use in a Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) or a Plug-In Electric Vehicle (PHEV) or an Extended Range Electric Vehicle (EREV). •1.2.2 Provide All Necessary Operating Information and Additional Components The Subcontractor shall provide all information necessary for operating the ESS in a vehicle under normal operation (driving and charging) and under standardized laboratory testing. The Subcontractor shall provide the dimensions of the exterior of ESS and the mounting method and location(s). Specific details shall be provided by the Subcontractor for proper mounting of the ESS in the vehicle. The Subcontractor shall provide ESS cooling requirements and operating information for proper operation of the ESS in ambient conditions between 5 and 45 degrees Celsius. The Subcontractor shall provide the intended mode of operation in which the ESS was designed for (i.e. PHEV, EREV, or BEV) as well as the class of vehicle in which the ESS is intended for use in (i.e. example mid-size sedan). The Subcontractor shall provide the tools and information to diagnosis and reset errors (fault codes) that prevent proper operation of the ESS system. Information requirements are detailed in Appendix A. •1.2.3 Provide All Necessary Communication Protocols The Subcontractor shall provide all information necessary and communication signal protocols from the battery control system / monitoring system (BMS) for vehicle controls system to communication, standardized laboratory testing (RPT), and data collection from the ESS. Reference Performance Testing includes capacity testing, power pulse testing, and other standardize laboratory tests. Communication protocol requirements are detailed in Appendix A. 2. APPLICABLE CODES, PROCEDURES, AND REFERENCES None 3. TECHNICAL AND FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS None 4. ENVIRONMENTAL, SAFETY, HEALTH, AND QUALITY ASSURANCE REQUIREMENTS •2. •4.1 Environmental None •1 •4.2 Safety and Health None •4.3 Quality Assurance/Control None 5.
