A battery enclosure and method for manufacturing the same from organosheet materials. The battery enclosure includes a top cover with crossbeams integrated therein by overmolding that secures to a bottom panel to enclose a space for containing components of a battery. The bottom panel includes overmolded structural ribs to provide strength and rigidity to the bottom panel. An outer cover removably secure the top cover to the bottom panel and includes a honeycomb structure to crush upon impact and protect the battery components. The method comprises forming each of the components of the battery enclosure from a mixture of organosheets, reinforcing members, and overmolded elements to reduce the weight and complexity of manufacturing for the battery enclosure.

An assembly comprising a housing (6) having walls (11) and containing groups of electrical cells (7). Each wall contains at least one space in which, at a given time, a flow of thermal fluid (F2) can be present.

The said space, and thus the corresponding wall (11), has a flow of fluid inlet and outlet. In a flow of fluid-tight manner, the flow of fluid inlet and outlet communicate with, respectively, a supply (25a) of thermal flow of fluid and a discharge (25b) of said flow of fluid, so that the flow of fluid can circulate in said space. Through the surrounding wall and said sealed communications, said space is physically isolated from the cells, so that the flow of fluid (F2) therein and the interior space (9) of the housing do not communicate. The wall (11) extends parallel to at least one of the lateral faces of at least one said cell (7).

A modular electrical Energy Storage System structure for powering an electric motor in a vehicle. The modular ESS structure includes two or more electrical energy storage modules, the modular ESS structure extending in a longitudinal direction, in a transverse direction and in a vertical direction, the longitudinal direction coinciding with a driving direction of the vehicle, the two or more electrical energy storage modules being arranged side-by-side in the transverse direction , in the longitudinal direction and/or in the vertical direction and being connected to each other structurally and electrically. The modular ESS structure comprises a first mounting interface comprising one or more first connecting members configured for mounting to a vehicle structure.

A particle separator includes an inlet and an outlet where solid particle are separable from a particle-battery gas mixture introduced with overpressure at the inlet by the particle separator and where the battery gas is depressurizable at the outlet. The particle separator further includes a gas channel wound in a screw shape in an axial direction which fluidically connects the inlet to the outlet. The gas channel has a particle emission on an outlet-side end of the particle separator which is opened in a radial direction and through which the solid particles are passable.
