Regulatory News:
Forsee Power (FR0014005SB3 – FORSE – the “Company”), the
French expert in smart battery systems for sustainable
electromobility, is launching a new high-energy battery system, ZEN
LFP, to provide full-day operations to electric buses, trucks, and
off-highway vehicles.
The ZEN LFP battery system – available in 36 kWh and 55 kWh
modules– has been developed by Forsee Power's R&D engineers and
will be manufactured in Europe, North America, and
Asia-Pacific.
A modular LFP solution to electrify heavy vehicles with an
excellent cycle life
ZEN LFP is a cost-efficient, high-energy lithium-ion LFP modular
product line designed for the commercial vehicles market (bus,
truck, off-highway). ZEN LFP batteries are available in two
formats: 36 kWh and 55 kWh, hence offering a wide range of voltage
and energy combinations to perfectly match power and energy
requirements. The 2 different formats – combined with an excellent
energy density of 240 Wh/L, and the ability to stack up to 2
modules – allow a multitude of integration possibilities to
optimize all available space in the vehicle.
Forsee Power’s safe and robust design complies with ISO 26262
ASIL-C and is compatible with numerous stringent industry standards
(including R100-3, R10.6, AIS-038 rev.2, SAE J2464 and SAE J2929),
ensuring the reliability and durability of the battery system. It
is also compatible with the C-box LFP industry standard format for
easy replacement, while being more compact, and able to provide up
to 20% more power.
This new product line offers an exceptional life of up to 6,000
cycles and cost optimization related to the LFP chemistry, hence
providing a very low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) to
operators.
A product available worldwide and manufactured in Europe,
Asia-Pacific, and North America
Forsee Power is leading the world market for bus batteries
outside of China and has developed a very strong commercial and
industrial footprint in Europe, Asia-Pacific, and North America.
The Group is rapidly developing in other market segments such as
off-highway vehicles, trucks, and trains, with a modular and
flexible production offering.
The battery expert has located the production of its batteries
close to its customers' assembly plants, thus significantly
reducing the carbon footprint linked to transport and limiting
delivery costs and times. The production sites also provide battery
maintenance services, in addition to remote diagnosis.
Already present in Europe and Asia, Forsee Power will start to
produce locally in the United States early 2024 to serve the
Americas zone. This local production in Columbus, Ohio, will align
with the Buy American Act.
