Abstract

An energy storage device cooling system includes a housing, at least one energy storage device within the housing, and a coolant circuit including a first flow portion extending through the housing, the coolant circuit configured to supply coolant for heat exchange with the at least one energy storage device. The energy storage device cooling system also includes a chiller system including: a coolant supply, a heat exchanger, and an outlet in fluid communication with the first flow portion. The energy storage device cooling system also includes a controller configured to alter a function of the chiller system when a sensed temperature does not exceed a first temperature threshold.
