Abstract

A module for a battery is disclosed. The module includes a power system in the container. The power system also includes a high voltage battery for powering high voltage loads. The power system also includes a low voltage battery for powering low voltage loads. The module also includes a converter at least partially in the container configured for directing power provided from the high voltage battery to the low voltage battery. The module also includes a device for disconnecting at least one of the high voltage battery from the high voltage loads and the low voltage battery from the low voltage loads. The container is configured to transfer heat from the battery system to an outside of the container. A module for thermal management of a battery system is also disclosed. An energy management system for a battery system is also disclosed.
