EnerSys will feature its full portfolio of ODYSSEY batteries for heavy-duty applications at the American Trucking Association Technology & Maintenance Council (TMC) 2023 Annual Meeting & Transportation Technology Exhibition.

The advanced-battery lineup will be on display in ODYSSEY booth No. 209 at this year’s technical conference, which takes place Feb. 27 through March 2 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orange County, Florida.  

“Our selection of ODYSSEY batteries for heavy-duty applications offers fleet operators with tremendous value by providing multiple operational benefits including dependability, performance and longevity, which often lead to a lower total cost of ownership,” said Dave McMullen, senior director of global marketing, transportation & specialty at EnerSys. “Virtually maintenance-free and engineered with proprietary Thin Plate Pure Lead technology for greater surface area and deep-cycling capacity, they are the ideal power solution for drivers dealing with idling restrictions or seeking to achieve less manual labor requirements and frequent battery replacements.”

ODYSSEY Thin Plate Pure Lead (TPPL) batteries are engineered with pure lead plates that can be made thinner than those in conventional flooded lead-acid batteries, so more fit into the same size footprint to provide greater surface area. This enables more electrochemical reactions with the electrolyte to produce more power than battery chemistries of comparable size, according to the company.

In addition to greater starting power, ODYSSEY batteries provide ample deep-cycling reserve power, with engine-cranking pulses up to 3,125 amps for five seconds, which is double that of equally sized conventional lead-acid batteries, according to the company. They also feature sealed absorbed-glass-mat (AGM) construction, which packs the plates tightly in absorbent fiberglass separators that hold the electrolyte and make the batteries virtually maintenance-free. The rugged AGM construction and non-spillable design of ODYSSEY batteries also protect against high-impact shock and mechanical vibration, helping to provide longer service life, according to EnerSys.

ODYSSEY batteries feature a two-year storage life at 77 F (25 C) and are available in a wide variety of sizes with cold-cranking amps as high as 2,250.

      Bosch Re-Launches Passenger Car, Light Duty Truck Batteries
      By Counterman
      Bosch Mobility Aftermarket announced the re-launch of its passenger car and light duty truck battery offering, now known as the Bosch Premium Battery Program. The company said this revitalized program embraces a new name emphasizing its exclusive focus on premium batteries and includes new stock-keeping units (SKUs) for the Bosch S5 Premium Power Flooded Batteries and the Bosch S6 High Performance AGM Batteries.
      “This emphasized focus on premium batteries, with 90% market coverage, guarantees shop owners and end-users alike will confront less complexity in our battery line, while enjoying greater inventory efficiency,” said Dennis Krob, senior product manager at
      link hidden, please login to view. “We’ve been listening to customers and understand these two areas are critically important in today’s market. We’re proud to be refreshing our offerings at a premium level to meet these demands, while helping drive business and streamline operations.”
      link hidden, please login to view said it will expand its portfolio of S5 Premium Power Flooded Batteries by 13 new SKUs. These batteries boast a three-year warranty and provide dependable starting power, a long service life and reduced risk of acid leakage in newer car models with high electronic demand. The new program also includes three new SKUs for the Bosch S6 High Performance AGM Batteries. According to the company, these batteries promise a lifespan up to two times longer than conventional alternatives and provide consistent, optimal power for start-stop vehicles and models that use regenerative braking. The S6 batteries offer a warranty guaranteeing free replacement for four years after the date of purchase.

      Clarios, Altris Partner on Low-Voltage Sodium-Ion Batteries
      By Counterman
      Advanced low-voltage battery solutions provider
      link hidden, please login to view, announced a strategic investment in Altris, a pioneer in sustainable sodium-ion battery technology, with the aim of manufacturing low-voltage, sodium-ion (Na-ion) batteries for the automotive sector.
      link hidden, please login to view expects its investment to initially enable Altris to finalize and start pilot production of Na-ion automotive batteries, followed by commercial production beginning in 2026. This equity stake builds on a joint development agreement (JDA) between Clarios, producer of one in three of the world’s low-voltage car batteries, and Altris, a leader in sodium-ion cathode material and battery cell technology, focused on low-voltage Na-ion batteries, according to a news release announcing the strategic investment.
      Clarios said it will leverage its expertise in Battery Management Systems (BMS), software and system integration to design the Na-ion low-voltage automotive battery system to optimize battery performance.
      Altris, on the other hand, will focus on developing the sodium-ion cell technology for this low-voltage application. Every vehicle, including hybrid electric and fully electric vehicles, requires a low-voltage energy source to power an increased number of software-based functions such as steer-by-wire, break-by-wire, autonomous functions, and enhanced in cabin experiences.
      The Clarios low-voltage system architecture, comprising multiple networks and battery power sources, is essential for powering critical safety features and ensuring redundancy in vehicle electrical systems, the company said. Sodium-ion batteries are well suited to meet these increased power demands. At the same time, they are inherently sustainable and easy to recycle.
      “A sodium-ion battery solution perfectly complements our chemistry-agnostic portfolio, neatly dovetailing with lithium-ion and lead-acid options to capture the best attributes of both: high performance and lower cost,” said Federico Morales-Zimmermann vice president and general manager, global OEM customers and technology at Clarios. “A sodium-ion battery system provides agility for automakers seeking options in meeting intensifying low-voltage demands created by advanced vehicle technologies.”
      The materials used to produce sodium-ion cells – salt, wood, iron and those found in air – are abundant globally and are free from harmful chemicals or minerals mined in conflict zones. Developing Na-ion batteries for vehicles would represent an important advancement in automotive battery technology, while advancing the auto industry’s circularity goals, Clarios said.
