en.Wedoany.com Reported - Ola Cell Technologies (OCT), a wholly owned subsidiary of electric mobility manufacturer Ola Electric, announced that its self-developed LFP 46100 cylindrical cells have received certification from the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) under IS 16046 (Part 2):2018/IEC 62133-2:2017. With this, Ola Electric becomes the first company in India to obtain BIS certification for self-developed cells in the 46100 format.

In addition to BIS certification, the LFP 46100 cells have also passed tests under IS 16893 Part 2 and Part 3, as well as UN 38.3 standards, demonstrating that they have completed the required evaluations in electrical, mechanical, environmental, reliability, abuse, and transport safety.

Ola Electric stated that the LFP 46100 cells achieve a high degree of localization in materials, components, engineering, and manufacturing processes, showcasing the company's capability to develop, certify, and industrialize advanced cell technologies in India. To obtain BIS certification, the cells underwent multiple safety, performance, and durability qualification tests—including thermal abuse, external short circuit, forced discharge, shock, altitude, abnormal charging, vibration, continuous low-rate charging, crush, free fall, and mechanical shock—at laboratories accredited by the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL).

The certified LFP 46100 platform represents another proprietary cell product from Ola Electric, alongside its NMC 4680 Bharat cells, providing a qualified technological foundation for future electric vehicles and stationary energy storage solutions. The cells feature an energy density exceeding 170 Wh/kg, a wide operating temperature range, and a development pathway for over 4,000 charge-discharge cycles, designed for applications where safety, longevity, and cost are as important as energy and power performance.

Ola Electric noted that its 4680 Bharat cells already power thousands of vehicles on Indian roads. By developing both NMC and LFP chemistries on the same 46-series architecture, the company holds an advantage in selecting the most suitable chemical system for mobility and energy storage applications.
