Battery Packs for Underwater Robotics

Underwater is the least forgiving place to put a lithium battery. Pressure, seawater, sealed hulls and no way to intervene mid-mission. We design packs for AUVs, ROVs and subsea systems where the battery simply cannot be the thing that fails.

The Engineering Challenge

Why subsea platforms can't run on catalogue batteries

An underwater vehicle's battery works inside a sealed hull, under pressure, surrounded by conductive saltwater, and a failure ends the mission, or the vehicle. The pack has to be engineered for that environment from the first sketch.

Pressure

Depth changes everything

Whether the pack sits in a one-atmosphere housing or must tolerate ambient pressure, the mechanical design, cell format and potting strategy are depth decisions. A pack designed for the bench behaves differently at operating depth.

Ingress

One drop of seawater is a short circuit

Seawater is conductive and corrosive. Sealing strategy, connector selection, penetrator interfaces and internal conformal protection determine whether a minor seep becomes a lost vehicle.

Energy Density

Every watt-hour fights buoyancy

Battery mass drives ballast, trim and endurance simultaneously. Cell selection and pack packaging must maximise watt-hours inside a fixed hull volume and a fixed weight budget. There is no adding a bigger battery later.

Fault Behaviour

No one can reach the pack mid-mission

A nuisance BMS cutoff at depth is not an inconvenience; it's a recovery operation. Protection logic, redundancy and fail-safe behaviour must be designed for a vehicle that can't be power-cycled by hand.

Built Around Your Platform

Every parameter engineered to your vehicle

We start from your hull sections, depth rating and mission endurance, and design the pack into the vehicle, not alongside it.

Hull-section geometry

Cylindrical, saddle and free-form pack layouts designed to your pressure housing or wet section, keeping mass where your trim calculations want it.

Sealing & penetrators

Enclosure sealing strategy, subsea connector and penetrator interfaces specified with your vehicle's architecture, not adapted to it afterwards.

Chemistry for endurance

High-energy Li-ion/NMC for survey endurance; LFP where cycle life and thermal stability matter more, as on daily-duty inspection ROVs.

Depth-aware BMS

Protection thresholds, balancing and fault logic configured for missions where the vehicle cannot be manually reset, including graceful degradation instead of hard cutoffs.

Corrosion protection

Marine-grade hardware, coatings and material pairings selected to survive salt spray, immersion cycles and deck handling between deployments.

Telemetry to topside

State of charge, health and temperature streamed over RS-485/CAN into your vehicle bus, so pilots and mission planners see real energy state, not estimates.

Engineering Depth

Engineered for the environment your vehicle actually works in

endurance_model

Mission-profile energy modelling (thruster load, hotel load, payload duty) so endurance predictions hold in the water, not just the spreadsheet.

seal_validation

Enclosure and interface sealing evaluated through immersion and pressure-cycling checks before the pack ships.

safety_design

Cell-level fusing, thermal isolation and fault containment designed for a battery that operates inside a sealed, unattended hull.

traceability

Incoming cell QC, batch traceability and documented test records for every pack, built for programmes that audit their supply chain.

Where These Packs Run

Subsea platforms we engineer for

Inspection

Inspection-class ROVs

Compact, high-cycle packs for daily-duty inspection vehicles working ports, hulls, dams and offshore structures.

Survey

AUVs & survey vehicles

High-energy-density packs that turn fixed hull volume into maximum mission endurance for mapping and survey work.

Seabed

Crawlers & seabed systems

High-capacity packs for tracked subsea vehicles and resident systems with long deployment windows.

Maintenance

Hull-cleaning & intervention robots

Packs built for repeated immersion cycles, wash-down handling and hard daily service schedules.

Research

Oceanographic instruments

Long-duration, low-drain packs for moored and drifting instrumentation and research platforms.

Defence

Underwater defence systems

Sealed, traceable packs for maritime security and defence subsea programmes. See defence robotics packs →

Why Revogreen

A development partner, not a parts supplier

Subsea programmes are iterative by nature: hull revisions, payload changes, deeper ratings. You need a battery partner who treats the pack as part of the vehicle design, and moves with it.

Direct engineering access

Your engineers talk to our pack designers, not a sales layer. Requirement discussions happen in volts, amps and millimetres.

Prototype-friendly MOQs

We build packs in ones and tens for development, then scale the same design into production.

Designed & made in India

Local engineering, local manufacturing, local support. Short iteration loops and a supply chain your programme can actually visit.

Full power ecosystem

Beyond the pack: chargers, smart-battery telemetry and monitoring from one partner, so your power system is designed as a whole.

How We Work

From requirement to production pack

Requirement

Share your platform's power budget, envelope, duty cycle and environment, under NDA where needed.

Design

Cell selection, pack architecture, BMS configuration and mechanical design proposed against your spec.

Prototype & validate

Working packs on your platform for field trials; design iterated on real mission data.

Production

Repeatable manufacture with cell QC, end-of-line testing and batch traceability.
