Advanced Connected Energy is a technique which embeds a low energy communication device into a lead-acid battery to communicate via Bluetooth® Low Energy to a smartphone app, SDK, or controller. The chip provides real-time access to performance when the battery is in service as well as charge status while the battery is stored in a warehouse.

In 2020, operators, manufacturers, and industry standards bodies began to investigate the potential for a new distributed power technique that could deliver more power in a safe environment for technicians and the public. A new distributed powering technique called fault managed power was developed imposing no power limit under normal operation, but precisely limit energy transferred under a fault condition to mitigate shock and fire hazard.
