UltraCharge enters into purchase agreement to supply lithium-ion batteries to power threewheel electric scooters

  • UTR signs deal to supply lithium-ion batteries for three-wheel electric scooter manufacturer, Roadix Urban Transportation Ltd

  • Subject to meeting battery specifications set out by Roadix, UTR contracted to provide 16,700 batteries

  • UTR’s lithium ion battery solution will deliver Roadix’s three-wheel scooters more torque and horsepower, and increase their range to 40 kilometres

  • The global market for two wheel and three-wheel electric scooters is growing rapidly, with many new players around the world

  • Roadix deal follows similar supply deal signed in May 2018 with Blitz Motors for their two-wheel electric scooters

UltraCharge Limited ( ASX: UTR, “UltraCharge” or “the Company” ) advises it has signed a conditional purchase agreement (“ Purchase Agreement” ) with Roadix Urban Transportation Ltd (“ Roadix ”) to provide high voltage lithium-ion batteries for their three-wheel electric scooters.

Under the deal, Ultracharge will design, develop and manufacture a lithium-ion pouch-cell battery that will be fully compatible with Roadix’s three-wheel electric scooter. UltraCharge’s battery solution will deliver Roadix scooters more torque, higher power and increase their range to 40 kilometres.

Headquartered in Israel, Roadix is the developer of MUV-e (My Urban Vehicle), a lightweight electric scooter. The company is expanding internationally to Europe, US and China.

Year 2 4,500
Year 3 10,000
Total 16,500

Commenting on the supply deal, UltraCharge CEO Kobi Ben-Shabat said: “This contract with Roadix is another significant milestone for our cobalt-free, high voltage, lithium-ion battery solution and clearly demonstrates UltraCharge’s ability to customise solutions for specific end-user requirements.

“The Roadix contract is further third-party validation of UltraCharge’s lithium-ion battery solution and comes just six months after our signing of a similar supply deal with Blitz Electric Motors.

“UltraCharge is one of only a handful of pure lithium-ion battery listed companies in the world with the ability to produce a lithium-ion battery and we are well placed to capitalise on the rapidly emerging global opportunities for lithium-ion batteries.

“With two supply contracts now in place we look forward to strengthening our position as the market leaders in the lithium-ion battery market.”

Roadix Urban Transportation CEO Amir Zaid said: “Our company vision is to become a leading global brand in the premium scooter market.

“We are incredibly excited to offer our future customers an enhanced three-wheel scooter using UltraCharge’s lithium-ion battery solution that delivers higher power, more torque and an extended range.

“Using UltraCharge’s revolutionary, cobalt-free, lithium-ion battery offering is closely aligned to Roadix’s core objective - to help the environment while increasing the overall performance of our electric scooters for our customers.”

About UltraCharge Limited (www.ultra-charge.net)

UltraCharge is an Israel-based company that is a global leader in identifying, acquiring and developing battery technologies that offer superior qualities and new solutions for the lithium ion and flow battery markets.

UltraCharge has established a battery facility to develop its platform technologies and customising solutions to meet end user requirements, and subsequently meet global market demand.

The Company offers a full lithium ion battery solution with the following suite of intellectual property:

  • Anode for Lithium Ion Batteries : The technology will replace graphite in anodes (negative pole) with nanotube fibers made from titanium dioxide. This has the potential to revolutionise the market for lithium batteries by producing a battery that is safe, has a longer lifetime and is fast charging.

  • Cathode for Lithium Ion Batteries : The technology contains a high voltage LiMnNio cathode that is half the cost of commercial cathodes and can offer a battery solution that has advantages in terms of the voltage, energy capacity and power capacity.

  • Electrolyte for Lithium Ion Batteries : Low cost, high performing electrolyte solution. The intellectual property is around producing a more superior electrolyte salt – LiFSI - which can increase battery lifespan and performance at high and low temperatures.
