Industrial Partner for EU R&D Projects in Battery Energy Storage Systems, BMS and Industrial Scale-up

R&D and Innovation Executive at Maxxen Energy

Izmir, Türkiye

About

Maxxen Energy is a Türkiye-based energy technology company developing battery energy storage systems, supported by a multidisciplinary R&D Centre and a BESS manufacturing facility with an annual production capacity of 5 GWh. The company combines system engineering, product development, prototyping, testing and industrial-scale manufacturing capabilities.

Maxxen is seeking to join existing or emerging European R&D and innovation consortia as an industrial and technology partner. Our core strength is taking innovative battery technologies beyond the cell level and integrating them into pack, rack and complete BESS architectures, followed by prototyping, validation, industrialisation and scale-up.

Core R&D and Technology Capabilities

·         BESS System Engineering: Pack, rack and container-level architecture; mechanical and electrical design; high-voltage architecture; PCS integration; DFM/DFA; system integration and prototyping.

·         Battery Management Systems (BMS): BMS hardware, embedded software/firmware, SOC/SOH/SOP estimation, balancing, diagnostics, RUL, multi-chemistry BMS and HIL validation. Maxxen is open both to developing BMS solutions from scratch and adapting/improving third-party BMS platforms.

·         AI & Battery Digitalisation: AI/ML-enabled BMS algorithms, predictive maintenance, anomaly and fault detection, battery degradation and RUL prediction, battery digital twins, cloud-connected BMS and intelligent condition monitoring.

·         Battery Thermal Management: Liquid-cooling architectures, thermal modelling, intelligent cooling control and AI-based thermal-management approaches.

·         Next-generation Battery Integration: Integration of LFP, sodium-ion, high-capacity cells, long-duration storage concepts and second-life batteries at pack, rack and BESS levels, without focusing on cell-chemistry development.

·         Testing & Validation: Cell and pack performance testing, BMS HIL, environmental and thermal testing, system integration tests, and rack/container-level validation up to 2.5 MW.

Contribution to European R&D Projects

Maxxen can contribute particularly to projects in the TRL 4–8 range, where research outputs need to be transformed into integrated, validated and industrially scalable BESS solutions.

Depending on the project structure, Maxxen can also lead Work Packages or Tasks related to BESS System Architecture, BMS Development, Battery System Integration, Prototype Development, Industrialisation, Manufacturing & Scale-up, and Testing & Validation.

Cooperation Sought

Maxxen is primarily looking to join existing European R&D consortia led by universities, research and technology organisations, battery and BMS developers, AI/digital technology companies, thermal-management developers, utilities, renewable-energy companies and industrial partners.

We are particularly interested in projects that need a strong industrial partner to integrate an emerging battery, BMS, AI or thermal-management technology into a real BESS platform, validate it, and move it towards higher TRLs and industrial deployment.
