Even more batteries, even more possibilities: Swobbee integrates more battery types into its swapping stations
The Berlin GreenTech startup Swobbee has started the 4th quarter with a new cooperation. With Akku Vision, a renowned battery manufacturer from Germany complements Swobbee‘s battery portfolio, which thus grows significantly in compatible battery types. At the Swobbee Sharing Points, batteries from GreenPack, Okai, Torrot and Kumpan can already be exchanged, which are used in numerous e-cargo bikes, e-scooters and e-kickscooters.
Akku Vision with a prominent position in the e-bike market
The Franconia-based manufacturer Akku Vision has already been active in the development and production of high-quality e-bike batteries for the spare parts market since 2011, which are sold under its own brand E-Bike-Vision. Akku Vision produces compatible batteries for drive systems from Bosch, Yamaha, Panasonic and Gazelle. In addition, OEM-specific projects were added to the in-house development and production this year.
"We are very delighted to be working with Swobbee, which has extensive expertise and experience in operating and maintaining sharing points for Micromobility. Together, our goal is to further develop the product portfolio and we expect to expand its multimodal swapping points to new urban locations not only in Germany, but internationally as well." Says Kim Madsen, CSO of Akku Vision GmbH.
Swobbee battery swapping stations increase efficiency and sustainability
Swobbee is the first and only manufacturer-independent battery swap station with an intermodal approach for all types of small electric vehicles. The intelligent Swobbee stations fill the existing charging infrastructure gap in the booming micro-mobility sector. With its innovative Battery-as-a-Service approach, Swobbee helps to operate sharing and logistics fleets in a more efficient, sustainable and cost-optimised way.
"We are very pleased to have won Akku Vision, a leading developer of high-quality battery systems for e-bikes, as a cooperation partner. This again expands Swobbee‘s range of applications, which increases its attractiveness for fleet operators and other users. This is another big step towards our goal of making Swobbee the central filling station for micro-mobility and establishing a dense network of charging and exchange stations in urban areas," explains Tobias Breyer, COO and co-founder of Swobbee.
