Mark your calendars! On October 2, 2025, from 9:30 to 11:00 am CEST, BMS Alliance partner will gather for their third joint webinar, dedicated to European battery cell market’s dependency on external suppliers.

The webinar

There is no doubt that the research and development on batteries in Europe requires a continuous and prioritised focus to achieve the electrification goals. Moreover, the manufacturing capability needs to take a leap to compete with other continents so that the batteries can be made in Europe as per own demand.

However, battery research projects in Europe often face the challenge of acquiring high-quality European cells, as it is much cheaper and faster to purchase cells from outside Europe, which is not desirable.

The webinar will explore this topic with the four BMS Alliance projects (NEMO, ENERGETIC, BATMAX, NEXTBMS). They will share their experiences and engage in a discussion with the audience on common problems and potential solutions.

Register here!

About the Alliance

NEMO combines innovative hardware and software concepts to deliver next-generation BMS. By utilising high-frequency sensor data and dedicated electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) sensors, NEMO aims to identify and monitor electrochemical processes within battery cells and track their evolution over time. This approach will significantly extend battery life and enhance safety for automotive and stationary applications over the long term.

ENERGETIC focuses on developing the next-generation BMS to optimise battery systems for both transport and stationary applications in a path towards more reliable, powerful, and safer operations. It contributes to the field of translational enhanced sensing technologies, exploiting multiple AI models, supported by Edge and Cloud computing. ENERGETIC will monitor and predict the remaining useful life of a Li-ion battery through a digital twin.

BATMAX aims to create data-based and adaptable BMS capable of meeting the diverse needs of mobile and stationary applications. The project focuses on enhancing battery performance, safety, reliability, and service life, as well as developing a framework to efficiently parametrise physics-based models. A key outcome is the development of a scalable digital twin framework that integrates advanced battery models with extensive sensor data to monitor battery aging and facilitate key system functions.

NEXTBMS will develop advanced BMS by deepening the understanding of the physicochemical processes in lithium-ion batteries. The project seeks to optimise sensors and measurement techniques to meet modeling needs and the physical cell configuration to form a framework that supports battery state prediction and control. NEXTBMS will enable higher performance, safety, and longer battery lifetime.
