Heating a battery and cooling an electric power conversion device are achieved together. This mobile body includes an electric motor, a battery, a thermoelectric conversion element, an electric power conversion device, and a controller. The electric motor is a driving source. The electric power conversion device is configured to convert electric power outputted from the battery into driving electric power for the electric motor. The electric power conversion device is disposed in direct contact or in indirect contact with the battery with the thermoelectric conversion element interposed therebetween. The controller is configured to control electric power to be supplied to the thermoelectric conversion element. The controller controls, in a case where the battery is in a predetermined low-temperature state, the electric power to be supplied to the thermoelectric conversion element to cause a surface of the thermoelectric conversion element coupled to the battery to serve as a heat dissipation surface.

A battery assembly comprising: a first pouch cell for a battery, comprising a flexible surface to allow expansion and contraction of the first pouch cell a cooling plate having: a cell contact area for providing thermal contact between the cooling plate and the flexible surface of the first pouch cell; and an exchange contact area for providing thermal contact with a heat exchanger; a resilient interposer arranged to hold the cell contact area in thermal contact with the flexible surface of the first pouch cell in the event of expansion and/or contraction of the first pouch cell.
