Battery PACK: The "Energy Cube" - How Efficiency is Assembled
What Are Lithium Battery Packs?
A Lithium Battery Pack is a high-performance energy storage unit composed of multiple battery cells connected in series or parallel, integrated with a Battery Management System (BMS), thermal management system, electrical connection system, and protective structure. It serves as a core component not only for electric vehicles and energy storage power stations but also for home energy storage, industrial backup power, data center UPS, and more.
Advantages of Lithium Battery Packs:
High Energy Density: Utilizes premium lithium cells with energy density reaching 180-250Wh/kg, 3x higher than traditional lead-acid batteries, significantly reducing size and weight.
Intelligent Monitoring & Management: Equipped with an advanced BMS for real-time monitoring of voltage, current, temperature, and other critical parameters to ensure safe operation.
Long Cycle Life: Under standard charge/discharge conditions, cycle life exceeds 6,000 cycles (80% capacity retention), reducing long-term costs.
Efficient Thermal Management: Features liquid cooling or air cooling to maintain optimal operating temperature (20-30°C) with a <5°C temperature difference, extending battery lifespan.
Modular Design: Supports series/parallel configurations of multiple packs, flexibly adapting to different voltage (48V/1000V/1500V) and capacity (kWh to MWh) requirements.
Core Technologies:
Cell Sorting & Grouping: High-precision testing equipment ensures voltage, internal resistance, and capacity consistency for stable performance.
Laser/Ultrasonic Welding: Enables efficient cell-to-busbar connections, reducing contact resistance and enhancing conductivity & safety.
Smart BMS: Features SOC (State of Charge), SOH (State of Health), and active balancing to optimize performance and prevent overcharge/over-discharge.
Challenges for Lithium Battery Packs
The lithium battery pack industry faces several challenges. Dagong ESS addresses them with innovative solutions:
Challenge 1: Cell Consistency Management
Issue: With multiple cells in series (e.g., 1P52S), performance variations may reduce overall efficiency.
Solution: High-precision cell sorting + active balancing BMS to maintain uniformity.
Challenge 2: Heat Dissipation & Temperature Control
Issue: High-current charging/discharging generates heat, potentially shortening lifespan or causing thermal runaway.
Solution: Liquid cooling (cold plate/immersion) or air cooling + intelligent thermal algorithms for stable operation.
Challenge 3: High-Voltage System Safety
Issue: 1000V/1500V systems risk arcing or insulation breakdown.
Solution: High-voltage-resistant components, flame-retardant materials, and multi-layer insulation compliant with UL/IEC standards.
Challenge 4: Cost Optimization
Issue: High-voltage BMS and cooling systems increase costs.
Solution: Offers low-voltage (48V/51.2V) budget-friendly solutions for residential storage + optimized high-voltage designs.
Challenge 5: Installation & Maintenance
Issue: Large-scale systems require complex installation and high maintenance.
Solution: Modular plug-and-play design + remote monitoring to minimize manual inspections.

Q2: How to choose between high & low-voltage systems?
A: Low-voltage (e.g., 48V): Cost-effective & safer for homes/small biz. High-voltage (e.g., 1000V): Higher efficiency for large-scale storage.
Q3: Can existing packs be expanded/upgraded?
A: Yes! Our modular design allows adding/replacing packs easily.
Q4: What is the difference between a battery and a battery pack?
A:The battery cells are arranged in modules to achieve serviceable units. The cells are connected in series and in parallel, into battery packs, to achieve the desired voltage and energy capacity. An electric car for example requires 400-800 volts and one single battery cell typically features 3-4 volts.
Q5: What is a battery pack used for?
A:A battery pack is a collection of battery cells or modules packaged together to provide a unified power source, used in various applications like electric vehicles, portable electronics, and energy storage systems.
