BMS is essential since the battery acts as the heart of an electric vehicle and must be protected from improper operation (Battery management system). Additionally, this guarantees complete protection for Li-ion batteries used specifically in EVs. The performance of EVs is also impacted by these batteries, for example, the driving range. Therefore, it's vital to evenly distribute the cell charge over all of the battery pack's cells. We have utilized the active cell balancing technique to equate the cell charge equitably. To balance each cell's voltage without sacrificing energy, balancing energy from a highly charged cell is transferred to a lesser charged cell in an active cell. BMS has a wide range of functionality, including data storage, estimation, control, diagnosis and prolongs the life of Li-ion batteries and assures their safe operation while maximizing efficiency.
