Abstract

Disclosed herein is a battery module constructed in a structure in which a plurality of plate-shaped battery cells are sequentially stacked in a module case, wherein each of the plate-shaped battery cells includes an electrode assembly of a cathode/separator/anode structure mounted in a battery case formed of a laminate sheet including a resin layer and a metal layer, a plurality of heat dissipation members are disposed at two or more interfaces between the battery cells, and a heat exchange member integrally interconnecting the heat dissipation members is mounted to one side of a stack of the battery cells, whereby heat generated from the battery cells during the charge and discharge of the battery cells is removed by the heat exchange member.
