Abstract: A battery housing for an energy storage device, the battery housing has a receiving area for accommodating a battery unit. In this case, a gas discharge channel is integrated into the battery housing, which gas discharge channel has an interior space that is spatially delimited by a channel wall. At least one gas inlet opening and at least one gas outlet opening leading out of the battery housing are arranged in the channel wall. A gas discharge path is provided from the at least one gas inlet opening to the at least one gas outlet opening. At least one part of the channel wall is designed as a cooling device for cooling a gas-particle mixture flowing through the gas discharge channel.

Abstract: A battery for a motor vehicle, having battery housing with a first receiving area, a housing base which bounds the receiving area with respect to a first direction, and at least one first side wall arranged on the housing base, which bounds the receiving area with respect to a second direction, and at least one first cell stack is arranged in the first receiving area and has at least one first battery cell which has a first cell pole connection on an upper side. The first side wall is formed as a first cooling wall, and the battery has at least one heat conducting element and a coupling device which includes an electrical insulation, wherein the heat conducting element has a first connection area connected to the first cell pole connection of the at least one first battery cell via the coupling device and a second connection area arranged on the first cooling wall.
