NASDAQ-listed Beam Global announced this week the issuance of another patent by the China National Intellectual Property Administration (CNIPA) and the Office of the Controller General of Patents, Designs, and Trade Marks (CGPDTM) in India that cover the company’s battery safety technology.
The patents have been granted for Beam Global’s smart battery management system (BMS) that monitors the thermal storage capacity of the phase-change material and automatically adjusts the power output of the battery packs and cells as a function of the thermal storage capacity of the phase change material to provide a heat output within a predetermined safe temperature limit.
“Battery safety is our number one priority at Beam. We now have various patents covering our battery technology and innovations in the US, China, the European Union, France, Germany, and India,” said Desmond Wheatley, Beam Global’s CEO. “Our ability to deliver superior safety with technology that can mitigate thermal runaway propagation is making batteries safer across the many modes of transportation and automation that are electrifying, creating a significant differentiating advantage for us. Protecting this and all our other valuable IP in China, India, and Europe is important particularly as we continue to consider international expansion opportunities.”
