Extended range electric vehicle battery cell packaging for pouch design

A battery cell assembly includes a battery cell including active material configured to generate power from an electrochemical reaction. A pouch formed from insulating material envelopes the battery cell. The battery cell assembly further includes a cooling element having an internal portion and an external portion. The internal portion is disposed within the pouch and is in thermal communication with the battery cell. The external portion is disposed outside of the pouch. The cooling element is configured to transfer heat generated during the electrochemical reaction away from the battery cell.
