Battery Management System

Our products monitor, manage and integrate large-format battery systems, known as the BMS (Battery Management System) which includes several specialized subsystems. The hardware and software systems control critical parameters, including attenuation of power and possible emergency shutdown, and provide display information and system analysis to operators.

To ensure maximum performance and safety, modern batteries require complex management and control technology. Leveraging extensive experience in this sector, close integration with battery cell manufacturers and an understanding of the requirements for the automotive sector, EnergyCS delivers the advanced BMS system to respond to the challenges of both current and upcoming batteries. To date over 2,000 BMS systems have been delivered. These systems ensure proper operation of plug-in hybrids, electric vehicles, hybrid locomotives and stationary energy storage systems.

Representing the latest in battery technology, this battery management system provides both an amazing performance and safety not found in other Lithium-Ion management solutions.  The individual modules are in constant communication with each other and the Battery Management System (BMS), which serves as the “brain” making sure all the battery levels and temperatures are healthy.

The BMS is roughly equivalent to the ECU in an internal combustion vehicle.  The main difference being – instead of controlling ignition, spark and cam timing, and metering fuel – it’s busy keeping an eye on the current being delivered from the batteries to the controller and the state of charge of each cell to ensure that none of the modules become out of balance.  The BMS also controls the charging cycle to ensure each battery module gets just the right juice to end up with a fully charged and balanced battery pack.
