Powering military vehicles: a video series on battery technology, lifecycle optimization and the future of hybrid architectures

The battlefield is a constantly evolving environment when it comes to power requirements. Military vehicles have undergone significant transformation over the past decades. Power demand has increased, silent watch periods are longer, and onboard electronics are more complex than ever.

To address these challenges and support the development of future-ready solutions, EnerSys has developed a dedicated video series focused on energy storage systems for military applications. 

Throughout the series, we explore different battery technologies and how they perform in demanding environments. We compare their suitability across a range of defence use cases and outline best practices for battery storage, maintenance and lifecycle optimization. The series also examines system integration challenges and the growing role of hybrid architectures in enabling more efficient, reliable and mission-ready power solutions for military vehicles.

Selecting the right battery for defence applications is not a standalone decision. It is a collaborative process involving the end user, the OEM, and the battery provider.

By combining deep application expertise with advanced technologies and tailored support, we help military OEMs and end users optimize their power systems for performance, resilience and operational readiness. As a trusted partner, we deliver fully integrated solutions – from advanced batteries to Battery Management Systems ( BMS ) – designed to meet the complex demands of military operations.
