Leaping to strengthen the battery infrastructure in India, WardWizard Innovations and Mobility Limited, one of the leading manufacturers of electric two-wheeler brand ‘Joy e-bike’, signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Singapore-based renewable energy management consulting firm Sunkonnect.
The association is aimed at facilitating a feasibility study and identification of potential partner for the manufacturing of Li-ion advance cells in India. Following the MoU, Sunkonnect will set up a committee of experienced scientists, engineers and analysts to evaluate and identify the professional partner, as well as to develop the roadmap to set up the 1GWh cell production plant at WardWizard’s electric vehicle ancillary cluster in Vadodara.
Sunkonnect will also identify leading testing and certification agencies to set up a center of excellence for battery testing at WardWizard premises which will draft a standard quality specification for batteries. It will further draft standard norms for batteries to ensure quality and reliability for Joy e-bike’s range of models.
