New battery company SVOLT Energy Technology Co. Ltd, whose precursor was the Battery Business Unit of Great Wall Motor Co. Ltd, introduced its cobalt-free lithium-ion battery cell (NMx) and four-element lithium-ion battery cell (NCMA).

SVOLT product roadmap.

In the product launch event, Yang Hongxin, General Manager of SVOLT, said that the NMx battery cell rivals the NCM811 cell in performance, while reducing the cost of materials by 5%-15% and the cell balance of materials (BOM) cost by around 5%, and allows the materials to rise above strategic resources. The NCMA material not only outperforms NCM811 in cycle life, but also exhibits better resistance to heat, the ability to generate less gas and greater safety, which translates into higher capacity, longer cycle life and better safety performance in the final products, the company claimed.  The high-speed stacking process is the new generation of battery technology that breaks the bottleneck of winding processes of batteries. SVOLT aims to finish stacking one cell in 0.25 seconds in one single station. In contrast to the same type of winding process, the energy density of SVOLT stacking batteries improves 5%, the cycle life improves 10% and the cost reduces 15%.

In addition, Software architecture directly affects quality, cost, development schedule, which is required to cover both functional requirements and quality attributes. However, Most difficult and important thing in software architecture is to handle quality attributes such as performance, safety, availability, modifiability, scalability, etc and their tradeoff. At the upcoming “ Automotive E/E Architecture Technology Innovation China Conference ” to be held on the 7 - 8 Nov. 2019 in Shanghai. Mr. Junghwan Lee, the Principle Software Engineer of Great Wall Motors, SVOLT will give a keynote presentation that will explain your the solutions of BMS SW Architecture
