Controlar recently had its BatteryMirror project approved, a R&D initiative co-funded by the NORTE2030 Operational Programme. This support will help accelerate the company’s work in developing an advanced battery cell emulation system, aimed at improving the testing and validation processes of Battery Management Systems (BMS).
This initiative is part of Controlar’s ongoing strategy to strengthen its position in high-impact technology areas such as battery systems, power electronics, and new forms of mobility.
The company is investing in solutions that address the challenges of decarbonisation and automotive electrification, believing that the future of the mobility sector will be strongly shaped by innovations in energy management and the efficiency of embedded systems. Controlar aims to be at the forefront of this transformation.
BatteryMirror: a tool for development, production, and testing of BMS
The new project focuses on developing a battery cell emulator that replaces physical batteries with a compact and safe device capable of accurately replicating cell behaviour under different operating conditions.
This system is primarily intended for use in the development, production, and testing of BMS and other battery-related electronic modules, offering a reliable, flexible, and efficient tool to ensure the quality of these critical systems. The company expects to share updates soon, including the release of an initial version of the product to the public.
With this new investment, Controlar reinforces its commitment to innovation and the development of sustainable, cutting-edge technologies, contributing to the growth of the electric mobility industry and to its positioning as a centre of excellence in engineering and technology.
