Why Develop a Battery Management System (BMS) for Lithium-Ion and Lead-Acid Batteries?
The Problem: Batteries are becoming more capable and expensive as they are no longer relied upon to provide the spark to turn an engine but to provide 100% of the energy necessary to move vehicles safely, cleanly, and efficiently.
This critical role and increased cost mean manufacturers and vehicle operators need real-time insight into their batteries’ performance and condition.
The Solution: Develop cloud-connected battery management systems that enable remote control and management while providing vital data that can be used to develop services that improve performance, extend useful life, prevent complete battery failure, eliminate inefficient manual monitoring, and reduce battery replacement costs.
Not sure where to start? Here’s some inspiration.
Pioneering the Future of Intelligent Batteries with Blues
Embedding cloud connectivity into your battery packs is complex, and many battery manufacturers who attempt to develop their own BMS solutions dramatically underestimate the time, risk, and cost of doing so.
Blues’ harmonized cloud-connectivity solutions make it incredibly simple to embed wireless connectivity to capture your battery's data and route it to the cloud, which can be packaged into valuable services like predictive maintenance, remote monitoring, quality monitoring, asset tracking, and more.
Prolonged Battery Life
An actionable BMS extends the lifespan by preventing overcharging, over-discharging, and excessive cycling, which can significantly increase the battery’s longevity.
Effortless Data Routing to Any Cloud
` Gain unprecedented insight into your batteries and customers.
Notehub natively supports secure routing to any cloud, including AWS, Azure, GCP, Snowflake, and more — often in a “no code” implementation.
Enhanced Safety Measures
Improve your battery's safety by embedding it with BMS-powered features like cell balancing, overcurrent protection, and fault detection.
Harmonized Wireless Architecture
Stop reinventing the wheel by building chip-down designs.
Leverage a spectrum of technologies like cellular, Wi-Fi, satellite, and LoRa — all through a single set of APIs with minimal software and hardware changes when moving between technologies.
State of Charge (SOC) and State of Health (SOH) Monitoring
BMS systems can remotely monitor the SOC and SOH of the battery by measuring temperature, cell voltage range, and other data points to diagnose problems.
Fast-Track Your Time to Market
Reduce your time to market from years to months.
Blues’ pre-provisioned connectivity and low code technology dramatically simplify developing BMS solutions.
I like working with Blues because it solves several very important problems for me that I no longer have to worry about.
