Elysia promises to realise the full potential of batteries

Launched by WAE Technologies, Elysia is a battery intelligence business with solutions developed to realise improvements in the range, life, safety, power, and rapid charging times of any electric vehicle battery and batteries more broadly, including stationary energy storage.

Elysia’s core offering comprises Elysia Embedded, software that is embedded onto the battery. Its BMS algorithms have been designed to help OEMs increase vehicle range, enable faster charging, and maximising battery power.

“The same algorithms that we run on the racetrack, we are now making them available to any other battery manufacturer,” Joe Jones, Elysia commercial lead, said at a recent media roundtable.

According to WAE, Elysia Embedded offers the potential for up to a 30 per cent increase in battery life, 50 per cent increase in battery power output, up to 10 per cent increase in battery range and twice as fast rapid charging times.  

The second core component is the Elysia Cloud Platform, a cloud-based system which uses proprietary digital twin technology to help stakeholders turn data into ‘actionable insights’, enabling them to forecast and extend battery life, ensure safety, and protect warranty and residual values.
