Leclanche will supply Bombardier with lithium-ion battery systems for rail transport

Bombardier has chosen Swiss battery maker Leclanche as its preferred supplier of battery systems for rail transport around the world in a deal with a potential business volume of more than 100 million euros over the next five years, foreign media reported.




Under the agreement, Leclanche will supply Bombardier with lithium battery systems for approximately ten different rail projects. These modules will cover its extensive train product range using Leclanche's module and packaging technology. In addition, the partnership will help wean the industry off the development of diesel and lead-acid batteries.




Laclanche, combined with Bombardier's towing technology, electrified all train types, according to Frederic Hendrick, head of Bombardier Transportation's Energy and Motion Module Center. Leclanche predicts a 400% increase in demand for rail vehicle battery capacity by 2025.




At present, vehicles including two-wheelers, cars, planes, ships and other vehicles are gradually becoming electrified, thus creating a huge demand for lithium batteries in the future. Different application scenarios also put forward different technical requirements for lithium battery system, requiring battery manufacturers to tailor the development according to the application environment of the product.




Leclanche, a Swiss battery maker, is commissioning Comau, an Italian automation specialist, to build an automated production line of lithium battery modules for freight applications such as rail and shipping.




According to the companies, this includes final assembly by stacking and welding the soft-pack batteries into up to 32 different product configurations. Multiple Settings can be achieved through the use of multiple articulated Comau robots and laser welders.




"Leclanche invested early in the development of DNVGL* certified battery systems for Marine applications and was the first battery supplier to fully comply with the 2015 regulations," said AnilSrivastava, CEO of Leclanche. The company's collaboration with Comau will enable Leclanche to produce leading energy storage solutions for electronic transmission and electronic ship applications on an industrial scale, ensuring Leclanche's position as a supplier of energy storage solutions.
