INSPLORION SENSOR SYSTEMS AB

Their core work

Insplorion Sensor Systems AB is a Swedish technology SME specializing in sensor systems for battery monitoring and diagnostics, particularly in electric vehicle applications. Their core product is real-time sensing technology that tracks the internal state of lithium-ion battery cells, enabling smarter battery management systems (BMS). They operate at the intersection of sensor hardware and battery technology, providing the measurement layer that makes batteries safer and more efficient. Their work supports both battery manufacturers and EV integrators who need reliable, in-situ data from battery packs.

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

Insplorion's early H2020 work (EBAM, 2016–2017) was a compact SME Phase 1 feasibility study on electric vehicle battery monitoring — a proof-of-concept stage with minimal detail and no technical keywords recorded. By 2020–2023, they had progressed into a large collaborative RIA (3beLiEVe) focused specifically on LNMO cell chemistry, sensors integrated into BMS, and manufacturing-ready battery technology. The shift is from exploratory feasibility toward applied, production-oriented sensor integration within a well-defined advanced battery chemistry program.

Insplorion is moving from early-stage concept validation toward applied integration of their sensor technology within next-generation battery manufacturing and EV drivetrain systems, signaling readiness for industrial partnerships.

How they like to work

Insplorion has both led a project (EBAM, as coordinator) and joined a large consortium as a participant (3beLiEVe), showing flexibility across collaboration models. Their participation in 3beLiEVe — a multi-partner RIA spanning 10 countries and 21 partners — suggests they are comfortable contributing as a specialist node within large European consortia. As an SME, they likely play a focused technical role rather than acting as a program manager, bringing proprietary sensor technology as their contribution.

Insplorion has collaborated with 21 unique partners across 10 countries, driven largely by the broad 3beLiEVe consortium. Their network spans battery manufacturers, automotive research institutes, and material developers across Northern and Central Europe.

What sets them apart

Insplorion occupies a narrow but high-value niche: real-time sensing inside lithium-ion battery cells, specifically for xEV applications. Unlike battery material companies or cell manufacturers, they provide the diagnostic instrumentation layer — the technology that tells you what is happening inside the battery while it operates. For consortium builders working on battery safety, BMS optimization, or EV battery lifetime extension, Insplorion brings a capability that most academic or industrial partners do not have in-house.

Highlights from their portfolio

• 3beLiEVe
  Largest project by budget (EUR 457,500 EC funding), a multi-country RIA targeting commercialization of LNMO cells for the 2025 xEV market — placing Insplorion inside a strategic European battery supply chain initiative.
• EBAM
  Insplorion's first H2020 project as coordinator, an SME Phase 1 study that validated the commercial case for their EV battery monitoring technology and laid the foundation for later consortium participation.
