The upcoming generation of Battery Management Systems aims to enhance interoperability, close the gap between first-life and Second-Life Battery Energy Storage Systems (SL-BESS), extend adaptability, and empower battery value chains.
WHAT IS BIG LEAP?
The BIG LEAP project is a Horizon Europe initiative that enhances operation realiability of SLB by addressing interoperability in Battery Management Systems (BMS). It develops a three-layer BMS architecture for SLBs, integrates an adaptable Energy Storage System (ESS) design, and aiming for safe and realiable operation from FL to SL-BESS. Testing in 2 physical and 1 virtual demos aims to validate innovations, contributing to market adoption and positive impacts on the European economy through the battery value chain.
The BIG LEAP project is dedicated to overcoming barriers in the reuse of old batteries in energy storage
OBJECTIVES
The overall objective of BIG LEAP is to enhance Second-Life Battery Energy Storage Systems (SL-BESS) applications by designing efficient 3-layered Battery Management Systems (BMS) and Energy Storage Systems (ESS), ensuring economic viability, flexibility, and industry-wide standardization.
BMS and ESS development
with three layers that make it easy to reconfigure batteries for different applications.
In-site End-of-Life (EoL) diagnosis and safety recalibration. We aim to extend the operational lifetime of batteries while reducing refurbishing costs.
Offering three degrees of openness for swift industrial deployment through our innovative Battery Management System is interoperable, adaptable, and updatable.
