Batteries including electrochemical cells, associated components, and arrangements thereof are generally described. In some aspects, batteries with phase change materials that can facilitate heat transfer within the battery (e.g., from an electrochemical cell to a component of a housing of the battery) are described. In some instances, the phase change material is in thermal communication with a thermally conductive solid article portion (e.g., a cooling fin). In some embodiments, the batteries include a multiplexing switch apparatus. Such a multiplexing switch apparatus may be used to selectively discharge one or more electrochemical cells of the battery.

Batteries including electrochemical cells, associated components, and arrangements thereof are generally described. In some aspects, batteries with housings that undergo relatively little expansion and contraction even in cases where electrochemical cells in the battery undergo a relatively high degree of expansion and contraction during charging and discharging are provided. Batteries configured to apply relatively high magnitudes and uniform force to electrochemical cells in the battery, while in some cases having high energy densities and a relatively low pack burden, are also provided. In certain aspects, arrangements of electrochemical cells and associated components are generally described. In some aspects, thermally conductive solid articles that can be used for aligning components of the battery are described. In some aspects, thermally insulating and compressible components for battery packs are generally described.
