The Canadian battery manufacturer offers the product in two versions with a nominal energy of 35 kWh and 70 kWh, respectively. It claims an expected life of 25 years for one cycle per day applications. Ontario-based lithium-ion battery manufacturer Electrovaya Inc. has released a new battery pack for heavy-duty, high-voltage applications such as buses, delivery trucks, construction trucks, fuel cell/battery hybrid systems and stationary energy storage systems. The company offers the new product in two versions, the HV-90 and HV-180, with power ratings of 35 kWh and 70 kWh, respectively, for 400V and 800V applications. Electrovaya noted that both systems can be expanded with a modular design based on different applications. The new product will be on sale in the fourth quarter of this year. “Infinity-HV batteries use UL-recognized ceramic lithium-ion cells and EV-series cells and have a 25-year expected life for one cycle/day applications, making them the longest lasting high-voltage batteries available, says the manufacturer. Infinity-HV systems will be controlled by the companys fifth-generation internal advanced battery management system (BMS), which is currently deployed in more than 4,000 Infinity products in the field, the company said in a statement, in reference to its facilities in Jamestown (New York, United States). The company also has a factory in Mississauga, Ontario, where future Infinity-HV packs will be produced. |
