The latest energy storage solutions from Fidus Power
Fidus Power provides customized energy storage and power conversion solutions, focusing on integrating advanced battery management systems (BMS) with high-density cells to meet specific application requirements. Fidus Power offer tailored solutions to overcome the limitations of off-the-shelf batteries, covering various chemistries beyond Lithium to improve capacity, cost, and lifespan.
Moving with the times and embracing new techniques at a component level results in performance features of clients’ end products that differentiate them from competition e.g. compactness, increased functionality, cost competitiveness, environmental performance or possibly staying ahead of ever evolving safety approvals. Both batteries and power supplies are key safety critical and complex elements of systems that require to work harmoniously with the systems that they are integrated to.
Key Aspects of Fidus Power’s Energy Storage & Battery Solutions
- Custom Battery Packs: Fidus Power designs custom packs to avoid compromises found in off-the-shelf options, such as inadequate capacity, high cost, outdated technology, or poor cycle life.
- Safety-Critical BMS: Battery Management Systems (BMS) are integrated into packs to manage operation, charging, and storage safety, crucial for meeting Type Test approvals.
- Advanced Cell Technology: Fidus Power work with numerous cell manufacturers to select the best chemistry (including Lithium ion and variants, NiMH, and NiCd) based on power density, thermal performance, and lifespan.
- Charging Solutions: Fidus Power offers guidance on integrated charging ICs for portable applications or separate charging solutions for larger, complex systems.
- Environmental & Technical Features: Solutions often include features like authentication (preventing unauthorized, unsafe aftermarket packs), increased functionality, and compliance with the latest safety approvals.
- Safety and Transportation Approvals: To be able to certify your end product the pack requires a specific set of approvals depending on chemistry, battery type, size, end application and what global regions you are vending to. Transportation of batteries can be a minefield of legislation and paperwork which we can help with e.g, CE marking and UN38.3
Why Choose Custom Over Off-the-Shelf?
- Optimization: Tailored to the exact application requirements.
- Performance: Higher energy density and better thermal management.
- Security: Features like authentication to ensure only OEM packs are used.
- Longer Lifetime: Improved cycle life and reduced long-term cost of ownership.
