Engineers from Electra EV use a unique combination of digital technologies and experimental use case data to develop Battery Systems, enabling superior energy management for EVs in a safe, reliable, and affordable manner.
Electra EV engineers have developed battery systems utilising LFP and NMC battery packs for a variety of EV applications. These systems utilise superior understanding of powertrain requirements, energy efficiency and power electronics to create EVs with enhanced cumulative mileage, better thermal management and overall vehicle performance.
An electric vehicle battery is often composed of individual cells arranged in a series/parallel configuration to achieve the desired voltage and capacity in the final pack. Cells/batteries are selected based on the requirements of the customer and vehicle requirements as per the automotive standard. Engineers from Electra EV achieve cell interconnections that reduce internal resistance losses significantly. The battery design complements the requirements of the motor(s) and charging system that a vehicle utilizes.
Battery systems from Electra EV come with a heating and/or cooling unit (Chill forced air / Liquid) to maintain thermal management and enable optimum life of the battery pack. This system is validated either drive cycle or fast charge scenarios with different environment temperatures.
Battery systems are subjected to stringent validation and tests for automotive regulations like Crash, Vibration, Range test & Accelerated life tests etc. Electra EV enables support for Validation and homologation through internal facilities and/or through a partner ecosystem.
Engineer at Electra EV utilise latest CAE, CFD and modelling software to conduct efficiency mapping, before selecting components for such battery systems.
Electra EV battery systems comply to all relevant automotive safety standards.
The battery testing facility at Electra EV is well-equipped with cutting-edge essential equipment such as module life-cycle testers, battery-pack LCTs, battery analyser, IR tester and DC programmable electronic load.
Electra EV also collaborates with academia and other research consortia, working on various battery chemistries for range and life extension.
Battery Management Systems (BMS)
Battery management systems from Electra EV meet and exceed performance when it comes to critical features such as voltage, temperature and current monitoring, battery state of charge (SoC) and cell balancing of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries.
Below are some of the features of BMS from Electra EV
- Individual voltage monitoring up to 36 channels
- SOC/DOD/SOH calculation
- Cell Temperature monitoring
