“These busbars can be easily assembled and disassembled with standard screwed fasteners, and their flexible formats have been refined to simplify assembly operations and withstand potential vibrations in the vehicle’s battery pack,” highlighted the researchers.
Real-time smart energy monitoring
The technological advancements extend to the battery’s internal management. The Battery Management System (BMS) incorporates wireless communication and real-time smart energy monitoring, which reduces weight, cost, and complexity.
An intelligent Smart Cell Manager (iSCM) provides localized cell monitoring and Bluetooth communication with the BMS and drastically reduces wiring lengths.
