Abstract: Various embodiments disclosed herein relate to systems and methods for battery cell ventilation. A corrugated battery module lid may be integrated above a battery cell module, wherein the corrugated lid includes a plurality of crests and troughs to form one or more gas emission channels. The plurality of crests and troughs may be at least partially positioned to encompass at least one of the plurality of battery cells to form enclosures. The enclosures may accumulate a maximum amount of gas pressure from a gas emitted by the at least one of the plurality of battery cells. One or more pressure release mechanisms may be associated with the plurality of enclosures and integrated with the battery module lid. In response to the enclosure exceeding the maximum amount of gas pressure, the gas may be automatically released through the pressure release mechanisms and flow though the channels between the crests.
