The Dukosi Battery Passport Secure Cell-to-Cloud Demonstrator has earned a nomination for the upcoming Electronics Excellence Awards. The technology will be recognized during a ceremony scheduled for November 10, 2026.
Why it matters
This demonstrator aims to enhance supply chain transparency, improve battery repairability, and extend the overall lifecycle of battery systems. By securing cell data, the platform provides a foundation for more sustainable and trustworthy energy storage management.
The system monitors 16 individual cells using DK8102 chips and C-SynQ near-field communication. It processes data through an STMicroelectronics STM32H533 microcontroller and secures transmissions via an STSAFE-A120 element.
The players
Dukosi
Dukosi is a technology company specializing in wireless battery monitoring and sensing solutions for electric vehicles and industrial storage applications.
STMicroelectronics
STMicroelectronics is a global semiconductor manufacturer that provides integrated circuit solutions for automotive, industrial, and personal electronics sectors.
The details
The platform functions by synchronously relaying cell-level data to a hub through a single bus antenna using near-field connectivity. The hub then interfaces with the microcontroller via a Serial Peripheral Interface to manage the secure cloud communication.
Timeline
The Electronics Excellence Awards ceremony takes place on November 10, 2026, at 12.30pm.
The Tech Race
This development marks a shift toward digitized supply chains as manufacturers race to comply with global standards like the European Union Battery Passport regulation. It replaces legacy, wired monitoring systems with wireless connectivity to improve design modularity.
This technology could lead to more reliable and longer-lasting batteries for consumer electronics and electric vehicles. Users may eventually benefit from improved repairability and transparency regarding the health and history of their battery packs.
The takeaway
Advancements in secure wireless cell monitoring are critical for the next generation of energy storage reliability. Implementing such standardized data tracking can significantly reduce waste by enabling easier repair and recycling of battery components.
What happens next
The Electronics Excellence Awards ceremony is scheduled for November 10, 2026, at 12.30pm in Hall C6 at electronica.
