Centre for Intelligent Battery Management System

Mission

The Centre for Intelligent Battery Management System (iBMS) aims to innovate in battery technologies, focusing on safety, efficiency, predictive diagnostics, and next-generation energy storage systems.

Roles and Responsibilities

The Centre will design AI-powered BMS architectures, develop battery health monitoring algorithms, and implement predictive maintenance models for EVs and renewable energy storage systems. Collaboration with EV manufacturers, renewable energy companies, and research laboratories will support advanced battery testing and characterization. Funding from MNRE, DST, and industry partners will help establish high-end battery testing facilities and research equipment.

Publication and Project Outcomes

Research will focus on battery ageing models, thermal management, fault prediction, and advanced control strategies. Results will be published in esteemed journals related to electrochemistry, energy storage, and automotive technologies. Project outcomes will include patented BMS solutions, real-time monitoring systems, and industrial collaboration outcomes for EV and grid applications.

Student Training and Development

Students will gain hands-on experience with battery modelling tools, data acquisition systems, and laboratory testing setups. Training will include workshops on EV batteries, seminars by energy storage experts, and project collaborations with industry. Students will develop research papers, work on industrial consultancy projects, and contribute to prototype development.
