Global and Chinese Power Battery Management System (BMS) Industry Report 2015-2018DUBLIN, June 25, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Research and Markets(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/lz6gql/global_and) has announced the addition of the "Global and Chinese Power Battery Management System (BMS) Industry Report, 2015-2018" report to their offering.  Battery management system (BMS) is a key component of electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles. To ensure safe and reliable operation of batteries, BMS needs to have various functions such as battery status monitoring and assessment, charging and discharging control, balancing and so forth. There are three types of companies in the Chinese BMS market. First type covers third-party BMS vendors, such as Epower Electronics, GuanTuo Power and LIGOO New Energy Technology, of which Epower Electronics entered the industry early, with its BMS products having been installed in multiple EV models of Chang'an, Dongfeng, BAIC Motor, Foton, JAC, and ZOTYE. Second category refers to battery module and pack packaging companies, like Guoxuan High-tech Power Energy and Sunwoda Electronic, which enter the market via independent research and development or cooperation. Third type is OEMs represented by BYD and BAIC BJEV, which have relatively perfect layout in the sector, with the former integrating R&D of battery, BMS and EV, thus giving it advantages in terms of cost and efficiency, and the latter boasting research capability for BMS after acquisition of Atieva and no longer needing supplies from third-party BMS companies. As a whole, China's BMS industry is still very backward compared with that in foreign countries no matter by technical specification or by business model. Meanwhile, consolidation in BMS industry continues to proceed, and some third-party BMS companies have gained a firm foothold and grown stronger via long-term cooperation with battery plants and vehicle makers. As module vendors, packaging companies and vehicle makers accelerate their presence in BMS industry, independent firms that have not entered supply systems will face increasingly narrowed living space.
