This chapter describes state of the art technologies associated with the current and future battery chemistries, battery management systems (BMSs) and associated applications. Note that Nickel metal hydride (NiMH) chemistry first became commercially available for electric vehicles in the electric vehicle (EV) vehicle. Currently, it is mostly used Toyota Prius' battery pack. The chapter lists the main BMS functions as battery parameters detection, battery state estimation, on‐board diagnosis (OBD), battery safety regulation and notification, charge control, battery equalization, thermal management, networking and data storage and more. It should be noted that these battery chemistries and its corresponding auxiliary components are expected to be funded substantially for EV and hybrid EV (HEV) development and therefore the costs are predicted to be reduced considerably in the near future. Radically different chemistries and approaches would be required to fulfill the very demanding requests of energy storage for today and the future.
