Forsee Power begins light EV battery production in India

Electric Vehicles India

Forsee Power begins light EV battery production in India. To increase the production line up of light electric vehicles especially for three-wheelers, the main area of focus is India’s FAME II national plan for electromobility. India’s first grid-connected li-ion battery-based energy storage system.
