Abstract
An exemplary battery assembly includes, among other things, a composite structure of an enclosure. The composite structure provides at least a portion of a coolant channel that carries a coolant. An exemplary battery cooling method includes, among other things, exchanging thermal energy between a coolant and a battery component as the coolant is communicated through a coolant channel. The coolant channel is at least partially established by a composite structure of an enclosure.
