Imagine if your battery could talk directly to your appliances without needing a bulky translator in the middle. This technology lets each individual battery cell be controlled by software to create electricity exactly how the grid needs it. It's like replacing a rigid pipe system with a smart valve for every single drop of energy, which stops weak cells from dragging down the whole pack.
Conventional battery systems suffer from high energy losses during AC/DC conversion and premature failure because the weakest cell limits the entire string. This leads to higher costs and shorter system lifespans.
A functional prototype of a cell-level controlled power converter and a digital control software platform that generates AC power directly from battery cells.
If you are a grid-scale provider dealing with high conversion losses and premature battery failure — this project developed a cell-level controlled system that generates AC sine waves directly from the battery pack. This can extend battery lifespan by up to 80% and lower the total cost of ownership.
If you are a backup power operator dealing with rigid system configurations and energy waste — this project developed a programmable power platform. It allows for dynamic configuration through software to ensure uninterrupted power supply during grid disturbances.
If you are a refurbisher dealing with inconsistent cell health in used batteries — this project developed a system that can bypass weak cells. This makes it possible to use various battery chemistries and second-life batteries more efficiently.
Based on available project data, the technology reduces energy losses and extends battery lifetime by up to 80%, which lowers the total cost of ownership.
Yes, the project features a modular and scalable design intended for applications ranging from critical backup power to grid-scale systems.
The coordinator, BLIXT, maintains a robust IP portfolio to protect the disruptive innovations developed in the X-Verter project.
The project has initiated pre-compliance activities to establish a certification strategy for various market applications.
The technology is adaptable to all battery chemistries, including Li-ion and supercapacitors, using a software-defined power conversion architecture.
The project is led by a single Swedish SME, BLIXT TECH AB, which holds 100% of the industry ratio. This lean structure suggests a fast-track approach to commercialization, relying on the company's own IP portfolio and a motivated internal team rather than a complex academic consortium.
