Renon India announced the launch of its smart swappable battery platform called Alpha for high-performance electric two-wheelers. This Li-ion battery pack is built with NMC chemistry and has a nominal voltage of 50.4 V and rated energy of 2.01 kWh and it can be extended to the LFP chemistry platform with the same footprint. Alpha platform hosts multiple patented technologies starting from cell interconnects to sensing circuits. This platform will be using Renon’s in-house built Battery management system and telematics hardware. It is built in a way, where this can be integrated seamlessly with most of the existing swapping solutions.
The battery has a three-layer safety net for thermal runaway events with phase change material. With a smart, configurable battery management system, accurate SOC and SOH algorithms for range estimation, and CAN 2.0 communication, Alpha battery packs are extremely reliable, safe, and built to withstand Indian driving conditions.
