Safe, reliable lithium-ion battery solutions
Developed individually, delivered right on time
FOR THE LONG RUN™
Welcome to the fast lane towards sustainable
energy solutions.
European Batteries develops and produces large lithium-ion
battery packs and systems for applications in transportation,
industrial and energy sectors. The battery systems are optimized by the compay’s own patented battery management
system.
The advanced battery systems provide customers with new
possibilities through significantly expanded operating ranges
for vehicles, longer battery life and higher tolerance for demanding conditions. They can be used to power hybrid and
electric drive trains and to store energy produced by renew-
able energy sources. The size range of the systems is from
1 kWh up to several MWh.
The new European Batteries plant in Varkaus, Finland is the
first independent large battery manufacturing unit in Europe.
As both cell manufacturing and control system development
work take place under one roof, European Batteries is also
able to provide convenient pre-testing opportunities and topnotch operating reliability.
From advanced cell technology to sophisticated,
comprehensive battery packs and systems
The complete battery system (3), consists of large-format
Li-ion cells (1); modules (2) comprising multiple cells; and of
an integrated battery management system that provides
a communication interface to the host system and the
peripherals. European Batteries manufactures all the components of the system in-house.
1.
Based on scalable design, the European Batteries cell modules
and systems can be conveniently adapted to various customer
needs in terms of voltage, capacity and energy. The same
overall structure is suitable for transport, heavy industrial
machines and energy storage purposes alike.

Industry-leading cell production knowledge
European Batteries uses lithium iron phosphate as raw material for their cells. This provides a combination of advantages, unmatched by any other lithium-ion chemistry:
• Very high energy density
• Very long life (both cycle and calendar life)
• Improved safety
• Eco-friendliness of the used materials
Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4 or LFP) is
the newest of the Li-ion cathode materials.
Compared to other materials such as LCO, LFP
provides longer cycle-life and in better thermal
stability – thus being a substantially safer alternative.
Scalable design
The EBatteryTM product family includes several modules, each
consisting of multiple battery cells and featuring different
combinations of voltage and capacity. Utilizing same
basic components makes module production and assembly
prompt and efficient. The variety, on the other hand, enables
numerous tailoring options for application-specific systems.
A perfect fit for any purpose
Cars
Modular structure and scalable design also allow placing the
modules in the most efficient way for any space, situation
or purpose. For example, T-shaped battery packs have been
designed to efficiently utilize the space in a vehicle.
Heavy vehicles
Utilizing the available space and uncontested energy density
per weight ratio, efficient solutions can be created even for
larger vehicles and industrial machines.
Marine
The advanced design allows even large MWh size systems
based on packs in parallel connection – strong enough to be
used in marine and demanding offshore applications. The
systems of this caliber require converters or active line units.
Energy Storage
Whether they are used to store larger amounts of energy for
undefined future purposes or to equip heavy machinery with
efficient energy storages, packs and systems can be scaled up
to a point where they fill an entire container.

Advanced battery management system
for purpose-specific efficiency
European Batteries’ solution always comes with integrated
battery management system. This system ensures flawless
operation of the solution by carrying out several tasks such as:
• Monitoring and controlling critical parameters such as
cell voltages and module temperature
• Maximizing available capacity, energy efficiency and
the cycle life of the battery system
• Controlling charging regime.
• Keeping the cells on equal state-of-charge level
• Providing a communication interface to the host system
• Ensuring high balancing current, scalability and intelligent balancing algorithm
The battery management master unit has a wide variety of
advanced features, such as:
• Interfaces to the host system: CAN, Ethernet, RS232, RS485, FO serial interface and USB for service
• Supported protocols: CAN Open battery profile.
Modbus and Profinet with gateway option
• Isolated battery stack insulation level monitor
• Flash memory for data logging
• Integrated power unit (up to 1.0 kV stack voltage)
• Several contactor driving outputs and relay outputs
• Several isolated analog and digital inputs/outputs
