Abstract

There are provided electric cells, a battery pack containing three or more electric cells, a battery control system and a battery control method. An electric cell for a battery pack will be interconnected with another cell to be used as a battery pack. For example, an electric cell comprises an electrochemical cell, a communication unit communicating with other electric cells, a measurement unit acquiring cell-state of the electrochemical cell, and a discharge unit discharging the electrochemical cell. The communication unit transmits a cell-state of the electrochemical cell and receives external information. The discharging unit discharges the electrochemical cell based upon both the cell-state of the electrochemical cell and the received external information.
