China's automotive market is transforming, with new models developed in as little as 18 months. This rapid pace challenges Western automakers, who typically require over four years for the same process. Ian Campbell from Breathe Battery Technologies highlights the pressure on both Western and Eastern companies to focus on costs and efficiencies, especially regarding battery technology crucial for electric vehicles (EVs). Breathe's innovative battery software aims to enhance flexibility and performance through its suite of tools. With recent funding, Breathe plans to advance software applications early in battery development, responding to the ever-changing EV market.
Chinese mobile phone maker Oppo was the first to adopt Breathe's software, resulting in a 27% reduction in charging time, showcasing its effectiveness in automotive applications.
With the increasingly short development cycles in China, it's driving a huge amount of cost and time focus,â stated Ian Campbell, emphasizing the competitive pressure on Western automakers.
Breathe has developed tools to help automakers maximize battery efficiency, addressing the unpredictability of battery behavior due to manufacturing variances.
The new funding will enable Breathe to advance its software integration earlier in battery development, optimizing innovative solutions for electric vehicle challenges.
