Abstract

A system for controlling a temperature of an electrical energy storage device may include a coolant circuit through which a coolant is flowable, a refrigerant circuit through which a refrigerant is flowable, a first coolant cooler, a support structure, and at least one molded component. The coolant circuit may be thermally coupled to the electrical energy storage device such that heat is at least one of (i) absorbable from the electrical energy storage device via the coolant and (ii) dissipatable to the electrical energy storage device via the coolant. The refrigerant circuit may be configured as part of a heat pump. The first coolant cooler may be configured to transfer heat between the coolant and the refrigerant. The at least one molded component may be structured separately from the support structure and may include a foamed plastic.
