Natural Battery Technologies Develops Long Range Batteries

The evolving EV opportunity continues to throw up more and more startups with ambitious plans. The latest is Jaipur based Natural Battery Technologies, a Lithium-Ion Battery manufacturers in India, is actively developing high performance batteries with increased safety parameters. The firm claims that its battery packs are weather proof and made of strong external closures. The battery is built with shock proof material to withstand strong impacts at high speeds.

Puneet Jain, CEO of Natural Battery Technologies has got capacity or EV range when it comes to their batteries. “Green batteries that has bigger and better capacity will provide more mileage and efficiency to the electric vehicles.”

He adds that battery packs designed in such a fashion so that they can be fitted into compact space and that allows for bigger capacity. The battery packs will also have smart features that will enable tracking for fleet operators. Additionally, this tracking system will also help the manufacturers to monitor the health of the long range batteries and the customers will also be able to understand the condition of the battery before any travel.

“The battery swapping policy, as announced by the Finance Minister during Budget 2022 speech has opened up the possibilities further. Till date, OEMs were differentiating between batteries through different shapes, sizes and capacity that are being fitted in each of the electric cars. But swapping will mean there will be guidelines on the shape and size of the battery which can ensure interoperability. All the battery brands will become compatible to electric cars—very much like cooking gas cylinders that we use at home, which has a standard size and weight. The battery swapping policy, once it comes in the market will open up a huge possibility,” Puneet added.

The products from Natural battery Technologies  will be swappable within e-bikes and e-scooters to boost the much lacking charging infrastructure currently, he adds.

The company claims that its long range batteries can enable mileage of two wheelers with more than 250km as compared to average scooter batteries which is 75-150Kms.
