Not really. The ribbons don't look like they have channels in them, so they might just be organizational, or firewalls. They don't seem to be structural from this angle.Looks like there are cooling plates between rows inside these (4680?) packs. This looks different from the original structural battery design which was supposed to be cooled from the bottom.

Not sure what else those ports would make sense for other than coolant.Not sure how it would be made if it had channels in it.
