We are observing a massive industry shift in the energy sector from petroleum dependence to battery power and we believe this is the greatest opportunity (once in a 100 years) that has ever arrived for the world and particularly for North America, a geography so well suited for energy storage and battery technology development, that it cannot be ignored. The region is rich in minerals, has a growing tech workforce, massive supplier and logistics network and a very strong government support, all of which makes Fetherstill Inc. in a very prime position to move forward with our battery technology development.
We understand that the beating heart of an electric vehicle or any energy storage system is its battery pack. Our team is now undertaking the design and development our own battery module/pack which will be aimed at bringing in the most desired cell chemistry, striking a sound balance between weight, energy density and power, all functioning smoothly with an efficient thermal management system, well suited into our unique design to fulfill the major requirements of efficiency and performance within the energy storage and electric mobility applications, functioning in any industry from passenger transport to construction to agriculture. - Companies

ESP32-Based Battery Management System Development
Fetherstill Inc. is seeking to enhance its battery management system by integrating the ESP32 microcontroller. The project aims to develop a robust and efficient codebase for the ESP32 that will manage battery charging, discharging, and monitoring processes. The ESP32 microcontroller is known for its versatility and low power consumption, making it an ideal choice for this application. The project will involve understanding the existing battery management protocols and translating them into code that can be executed on the ESP32. Learners will have the opportunity to apply their knowledge of embedded systems, programming, and electronics to create a solution that ensures optimal battery performance and longevity. The project will focus on tasks such as implementing communication CAN protocols, developing algorithms for battery state estimation, and ensuring safety features are in place along with integration of the data with AWS dashboard.
BMS-PC Interface Development
Fetherstill Inc. is seeking the development of a basic interface to connect their Battery Management System (BMS) to any local PC. The primary goal of this project is to enable users to observe and edit data from the BMS through a user-friendly interface. This project will allow learners to apply their knowledge of software development, user interface design, and data communication protocols. The interface should be intuitive, reliable, and capable of displaying real-time data from the BMS while also allowing users to make necessary adjustments. The project will involve tasks such as designing the user interface, establishing communication between the BMS and the PC, and ensuring data integrity and security. Key tasks include: - Designing a user-friendly graphical interface. - Implementing data communication protocols between the BMS and the PC. - Ensuring real-time data display and edit functionalities. - Testing and debugging the interface for reliability and security.
Battery module, electrical and electronics design and development
Main goal is to undertake detailed design and development of the different electrical and electronics components of a battery pack that my be used for electric mobility and energy storage applications.
Cyber security layer for product Battery Management System
BMS is the most important component for our battery module and facilitates the function of the product. Not having a security layer can expose the product and could potentially cause damage to the user. One of our major goal is to create an end to end safe product for the user. Fetherstill has written code for the BMS to execute a specific set of functions. The main goal is to develop code and create a cyber security layer within the BMS software to avoid any system malfunction.
