WAAREE Supplies 23 KwH Li-Ion Batteries to ACE Ltd for Forklifts

Surat based Lithium-Ion Batteries manufacturer, WAAREE ESS Pvt. Ltd has recently designed, developed, and supplied a high capacity 23KWhr lithium battery for 3 Ton forklift applications of ACE Ltd (Action Construction Equipment Ltd). These forklifts outfitted with WAAREE lithium batteries have now been deployed at Chennai airport and operating for 12 hrs per day.

The entire operation is through IoT enabled Smart battery management systems with CAN Bus Communication, which has also added to the operating life of the system. Waaree claims that the long lifecycles of WAAREE ESS lithium batteries have increased the daily duty hours of the forklifts as compared to the conventional lead-acid batteries bringing in more value for the money spent.

In a statement, Mr. Shiv Nath, MD of WAAREE ESS Pvt. Ltd, stated, “WAAREE is leading the transition to the state-of-the-art smart Lithium-Ion systems. We are very excited about this initiative of ours to transform the energy storage for mobility into a smart IoT enabled system with cutting edge technology features for high reliability, safety at a competitive cost.
