Paris, 14 February 2019 – Forsee Power, the French expert in smart battery systems, will supply the batteries for smart scooters manufactured by the Chinese company NIU Technologies.

The NIU scooters will be powered by Forsee Power battery systems delivering ranges of more than 80 kilometres, with all batteries covered by a two-year warranty. Forsee Power plans to produce more than 100,000 batteries for NIU at its Zhongshan facility in Guangdong province.

“This contract confirms the capability of Forsee Power to supply one of the largest stakeholders in the personal mobility market”, says Frederik Baudrier, Director of the Smart Life Division at Forsee Power. “Our longstanding expertise in this market and our understanding of the issues involved are the assets that have enabled us to win this encouraging contract.
