A method of producing an aircraft battery system, the method comprising: identifying a volume of free space on an aircraft (100); arranging a plurality of electrical power cells (112, 114) such that the plurality of cells (112, 114) are capable of fitting into the identified volume, wherein the arrangement of cells (112, 114) has a non-cuboid shape; fixing the plurality of cells (112, 114) together such that the relative positions of the electrical power cells (112, 114) are maintained; electrically connecting the plurality of cells (112, 114) together, thereby to provide a battery (102, 104); and electrically connecting a DC-to-DC converter (106, 108) to the battery (102, 104), the DC-to-DC converter (106, 108) being configured to control a voltage of the battery (102, 104) to be equal to a specified voltage or within a specified voltage range.
