The Battery Management System (BMS) is the “brain” of most modern batteries, preventing overheating, overcharging, and imbalance—ensuring the battery’s longevity and safety. Understanding how each part of a battery management system works will position you to optimize your use of batteries – or even work with them professionally. Careers in BMS design and programming shape the backbone of battery safety, fostering innovation and expertise to fortify our energy infrastructure for a sustainable future.

Master the intricacies of monitoring, preventing hazards, and ensuring resilient battery systems.

After this course, you will be able to:

• Describe the role of the BMS in battery safety and performance
• Describe the function of each aspect of a BMS:
  • Voltage and current sensors, temperature sensors
  • Cell balancing circuits, and protection circuits
  • State-of-Charge (SoC) and State-of-Health (SoH) estimation, MCU
• List the job duties and required skills of various BMS professionals.

The course is aimed at: technicians and engineers looking for an introduction to battery management systems’ role in battery safety, especially as a first step into a career working with BMSs.
