Battery Information Processing Apparatus, Battery Manufacturing Support Apparatus, Battery Assembly, Battery Information Processing Method, and Method of Manufacturing Battery Assembly

A battery information processing method of processing information for manufacturing a battery assembly constructed by alternately stacking a plurality of cells and a plurality of spacers, the battery information processing method comprising:

• obtaining information on a use history of the battery assembly used in a vehicle;
• and
• generating assembly information for selecting a cell and a spacer to be used for manufacturing the battery assembly,
• the generation assembly information including generating any one of first assembly information and second assembly information by using the information on the use history,
• the first assembly information indicating selection of a cell and a spacer determined as being higher in resistance against deterioration of a material for the cell than resistance against high-rate deterioration of the cell based on a prescribed indicator, and
• the second assembly information indicating selection of a cell and a spacer determined as being higher in resistance against high-rate deterioration of the cell than resistance against deterioration of the material for the cell based on the indicator.

A method of manufacturing a battery assembly constructed by alternately stacking a plurality of cells and a plurality of spacers, the method comprising:

• obtaining assembly information for selecting a cell and a spacer to be used for manufacturing the battery assembly;
• and
• manufacturing the battery assembly by using the cell and the spacer selected in accordance with the obtained assembly information,
• the assembly information being any one of first assembly information and second assembly information generated by using information on a use history of the battery assembly used in a vehicle,
• the first assembly information indicating selection of a cell and a spacer determined as being higher in resistance against deterioration of a material for the cell than resistance against high-rate deterioration of the cell based on a prescribed indicator, and
• the second assembly information indicating selection of a cell and a spacer determined as being higher in resistance against high-rate deterioration of the cell than resistance against deterioration of the material for the cell based on the indicator.
