- September 2023: Daicel organized the battery show in North America, and over 775 top suppliers from the advanced battery and electric and hybrid vehicles industry participated. Special workgroup topics include battery safety, market forecasting, next-generation technology, and prevention of thermal runaway.
- May 2023: Eaton announced that its eMobility business secured a contract to supply its battery disconnect unit (BDU) to a global vehicle manufacturer. The BDU will be available in 400 V and 800 V configurations and used in electrified passenger vehicles. Eaton's BDU incorporates its Breaktor circuit protection technology, effectively reducing complexity and cost. The primary function of the BDU is to act as an on/off switch for the vehicle's battery, depending on the mode of operation, such as charging or driving. Currently, most electric cars utilize one of three traditional circuit protection configurations in the BDU: fuse and contactor, pyro fuse and contactor, or fuse, pyro fuse, and contactor combined in a single BDU.
