The BMS: the brain behind batteries for electric vehicles

Do you know what a BMS is? And what role does it play when integrated into the lithium batteries – now in the majority – used in electric vehicles? The BMS (Battery Management System) plays a crucial role in optimizing the performance and lifespan of the lithium batteries used in electric vehicles. A complex electronic system designed to monitor, control, and protect the battery, the BMS ensures safe, efficient, and long-lasting operation of the battery, contributing to the overall reliability and performance of the electric vehicle. In other words, the BMS is considered to be the brain of the battery system, performing several key functions, giving the battery its status as an “intelligent battery system”.
