  • Micro-hybrid battery module for a vehicle
    Patent number: 9997816
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to micro-hybrid battery modules that include at least one battery cell having a titanate-based oxide anode active material with spinel structure and a high voltage spinel (LiMn2?xMxO4) cathode active material. The battery module may be configured to couple to an energy storage unit to enable the module to be used in start-stop applications.
    Type: Grant
