Soleil Power is implementing a project to build high-quality two-wheeled EV batteries. These batteries are designed for repurposing into affordable and scalable second-life products that can be deployed off-grid or as backup power. Soleil Power will build on existing partnerships to test these products and build a two-wheeled EV and battery swapping/charging infrastructure.

Much of the cost associated with repurposing EV battery products depends on the complexity of disassembly, testing and rebuilding used battery modules. The new designs will streamline and accelerate this process.
