A method for raising a temperature of a battery module for a vehicle. The method including generating heat in one or more resistors of the battery module by supplying one or more voltages from at least a part of cells of the battery module. The battery module includes the cells coupled in series, and the one or more resistors configured to generate heat after being energized and cause temperature of the cells to be raised. Voltages of the cells are subjected to monitoring and controlling by a cell monitoring unit of the battery module.

An energy storage module, particularly a solid state battery, an energy storage system, a vehicle and a method for measuring an electrical voltage on an energy storage module or on an energy storage system is based on two stacked and series-connected energy storage cells, each have an anode layer and a cathode layer. A contact, which is electrically connected to an anode layer located within the stack of a first energy storage cell and to a cathode layer located within the stack of a second energy storage cell, which is adjacent to the first energy storage cell, leads out of the stack such that at least one contact can be contacted from outside the stack.

A cabinet with anti-condensation mechanism is used to control opening and closing a cabinet door of the cabinet. The cabinet includes a control module, a temperature control module, and a locking module. The control module senses a cabinet-inside temperature inside the cabinet, and senses cabinet-outside temperature and a cabinet-outside humidity outside the cabinet to generate a dew-point threshold value. The temperature control module is used to adjust the cabinet-inside temperature. The locking module is used to lock the cabinet door or unlock the cabinet door. The control module controls the locking module according to the cabinet-inside temperature and the dew-point threshold value, and controls the temperature control module to adjust the cabinet-inside temperature to be greater than or equal to the dew-point threshold value when the control module receives a trigger signal.

A charging device for charging the electrochemical energy accumulator has a first circuit which is or can be coupled electrically to the electrochemical energy accumulator. A heating device for heating the electrochemical energy accumulator has a second circuit, separate from the first circuit, having an induction heating element which can be heated inductively by an external magnetic alternating field and which is or can be coupled thermally to the electrochemical energy accumulator.
