E-MOBILITY
Evaluating the role of shunt technology in electric mobility evolution
PRECISION IN MOTION
T
he accelerating shift to electric mobility is marking a profound change in the landscape of the modern
transportation industry. The need for precision and innovation in key components is more apparent than ever as electric vehicles (EVs) become an integral part of our mobility world. At the forefront of this revolution are advances in current sensing technologies, particularly those related to shunts: the silent heroes of electric mobility. Michael Richter, responsible for
shunts at Wieland, and Michael Wolf, in charge of Qulectra, share how the combined engineering experience
of the Wieland Group and Munich Electrifi cation is aiming to shape the future of electric mobility.
UNDERSTANDING SHUNTS Shunts are essentially precision resistors. They play a central role in the complex systems of EVs. They enable highly accurate state of charge (SOC) calculations within EV batteries as the heartbeat of current measurement. This function is critical to the optimisation of battery performance, eff icient energy management and ultimately the longevity and reliability of EVs. At a time when sustainability
and environmental awareness are taking centre stage, electric mobility is becoming a driving force for change. A collective commitment in reducing carbon emissions and embracing cleaner, more sustainable transportation solutions is evident in the growing adoption of EVs. To meet the evolving demands of the electrifi ed future, this paradigm shift underscores the need for cutting-edge technologies.
SHUNTS WITH PRECISION AND EXPERTISE Against this backdrop, the cooperation between the Wieland Group and Munich Electrifi cation, embodied in
Qulectra have
developed a new generation of
advanced shunts
