The elevated temperature for Li-ion performance was known method at NEDRA PIR and Wayland invitationals like 10 yrs back. I was there and I kept telling this what we saw in our cell tests back then. Higher death rate too. NMC cells from TS at that time could be preheated with high current charging just before peak load as it drove more li-ions in right places as additional effect. This also killed the cell in a way that you needed to elevate the temperature more on every cycle to get same power out. At normal temperature the cell had become "bad cell" after few cycles. We could now design and make 100C peak cells for dragsters with bi-polar structure and solid stacking. The lessons learned keep pushing the horizon further which we recognize as our technological limit. We are living truly exciting times. -Jukka
