Safeguarding EVs from faulty or recalled batteries

By Michelle Froese | December 16, 2024

Qnovo, a provider of battery software for e-mobility, has unveiled a comprehensive battery health and safety solution designed to protect passenger and commercial electric vehicle (EV) operators.

Qnovo SentinelX is software that acts as the first line of defense for automotive original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to prevent catastrophic safety incidents, such as electric vehicle fires related to faulty or degraded EV batteries.

This solution helps minimize costly automotive recalls and reduces warranty claims by providing real-time battery management that detects, mitigates, and alerts drivers of serious risks before they occur.

One of the first full-scale battery safety solutions on the market, Qnovo SentinelX is already in the advanced stages of road testing with major automotive fleets. SentinelX offers Qnovo’s customers a versatile battery health and safety solution with a 98.7 percent or higher accuracy rate. [i] It includes options to combine fast-charging, performance, longevity, cycle life, and risk assessment components.

A major advantage of Qnovo SentinelX is its flexibility, as it can be integrated directly onto a vehicle’s battery management system (BMS) or deployed as a cloud solution, depending on the customer and/or industry need.

Key components 

  • Qnovo SpectralX Adaptive Fast Charging (AFC): This feature offersfast charging speeds while extending battery life. SpectralX dynamically adjusts charging profiles to manage unstable battery cells, giving OEMs the confidence to offer extended warranties and mitigate liability risks, particularly for high-demand applications like taxi fleets.
  • Qnovo SpectralX Health and Safety Diagnostics (HSD): Using advanced, real-time analytics, HSD detects and monitors unstable battery cells, enabling OEMs to take proactive measures that prevent incidents and avoid costly recalls.
  • Qnovo Battery Genome: Backed by 12 years of research, this lithium-ion cell database provides an exhaustive list of cell models. OEMs can use this data to assess risks, model battery performance, and design safer, more reliable battery packs tailored to specific applications.

Qnovo plans to roll out EV maintenance features in late 2025.
