The new energy battery industry is undergoing a profound transformation—from scale expansion to technology-driven upgrades. With solid-state battery pilot lines entering production in 2026, the global Battery Management System (BMS) market projected to exceed USD 14 billion, and Power Conversion Systems (PCS) for energy storage rapidly scaling alongside the development of next-generation power systems, these three trends are redefining the boundaries of battery testing. Against this backdrop, this article examines the evolving testing requirements and key challenges across the new energy battery industry, and explores the technological evolution of test equipment in three critical dimensions: power capability, channel density, and energy regeneration.

In energy storage systems, the testing and validation of the battery management system (BMS) is a crucial part. To ensure that the BMS can accurately collect voltage and current information and respond correctly under various complex battery states, it becomes especially important to simulate the behavior of the cells and packs. The IT2700 Multi-channel Modular Power System, with its powerful multi-channel serial and parallel capabilities, provides an ideal solution for energy storage BMS testing.
