Battery solutions
Every application has different energy requirements. The right battery solution depends on factors such as power demand, operating hours, charging opportunities, available space and environmental conditions. Choosing the wrong battery can lead to unnecessary costs, downtime and reduced performance. Intercel helps companies select, design and supply battery solutions that match their application.
Finding the right battery solution starts with understanding your application. Every system has different requirements for power, runtime, charging, safety and lifetime. A solution that performs well in one application may not be the best choice for another.
At Intercel, we help businesses select, design and supply battery solutions that match their technical requirements and operational goals. From standard batteries and chargers to custom battery packs, battery systems and complete energy storage solutions, we combine engineering expertise with more than 40 years of battery experience.
Whether you are electrifying industrial equipment, upgrading backup power or investing in energy storage, we provide battery solutions designed for reliable, long-term performance.
This page explains how to choose the right battery solution, the different applications we support and how our engineers can help you find the best solution for your business.

Battery solutions for every application
No two applications have the same energy requirements. A battery solution for an automated guided vehicle differs from a backup power installation or a battery energy storage system. Factors such as power demand, charging opportunities, operating conditions and available installation space all influence the final design.
That is why we do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we help businesses select the battery technology, system configuration and supporting components that best fit their application.
Motive
Cyclic batteries for light EV machines and applications, such as Mobility, AWP, Automotive, Cleaning, Golf, Utility, Light EV, Material Handling and more.
Standby
Stationary back-up power used in Telecom, UPS, Data Centres, Emergency Lightning, Industry, Utilities, Renewable Energy, Medical applications and more.
Storage
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) that smartly connect to the grid or a renewable energy source to resolve grid congestion, for peak shaving applications and more.
Electrification
Off-highway battery packs for the electrification of machinery. Swapable or fixed and in any shape and size you need. Co-creation possible for a perfect fit.
Choosing the right battery solution
Selecting the right battery solution is about more than choosing a battery technology. The best solution is determined by how the battery will be used, the environment it operates in and the performance you expect over its lifetime.
When designing a battery solution, engineers typically evaluate several key factors.
Battery technology
The choice between lithium, lead-acid or lead carbon batteries depends on your application, charging strategy, budget and operational requirements. Each technology offers different advantages in terms of energy density, cycle life, charging speed and maintenance.
Voltage and capacity
The battery must provide the required voltage and enough capacity to power your equipment throughout the intended operating period. Oversizing increases costs, while undersizing can reduce productivity and battery life.
Charging strategy
How and when a battery is charged has a major impact on performance. Some applications allow opportunity charging throughout the day, while others require a full shift of operation before recharging. The right charging solution is therefore an essential part of the overall battery solution.
Operating environment
Temperature, humidity, dust, vibration and available installation space all influence battery performance and system design. A battery solution for indoor warehouse equipment requires different considerations than one used in harsh outdoor or off-highway environments.
Safety and compliance
Battery solutions should comply with the relevant standards and regulations for their application. Depending on the project, this may include battery management systems (BMS), protective electronics, communication interfaces and compliance with transport or industry-specific requirements.
Long-term performance
The lowest purchase price does not always result in the lowest total cost of ownership. Battery lifetime, maintenance requirements, efficiency and serviceability all contribute to the long-term value of a battery solution.

FAQ
What is a battery solution?
A battery solution is a complete approach to powering your application. Depending on your requirements, it may include battery selection, charging equipment, custom battery packs, battery systems, energy storage systems and technical support. The right solution is determined by your application, operating conditions and performance requirements.
How do I choose the right battery solution?
The best battery solution depends on factors such as your application, required runtime, charging opportunities, operating environment and expected service life. Our engineers help evaluate these requirements to recommend the most suitable battery technology and system configuration.
Can battery solutions be customised?
Yes. While standard battery products are suitable for many applications, custom battery solutions are often required for OEMs, industrial equipment and electrification projects. This can include custom battery packs, tailored system integration and application-specific engineering.
Which industries use battery solutions?
Battery solutions are used across a wide range of industries, including material handling, backup power, telecommunications, off-highway equipment, marine, energy storage, industrial electrification and more. Each application has different technical requirements, making the selection of the right battery solution essential for reliable performance.
Do you supply standard and custom battery solutions?
Yes. Intercel supplies both standard battery products and fully customised battery solutions. Depending on your project, we can recommend an off-the-shelf solution or develop a tailored battery pack or battery system that meets your specific requirements.
