Forsee Power accelerates battery delivery and signs new Wrightbus contract
By Jim Gibbins - 1st December 2020
France / Northern Ireland - Forsee Power, the Paris-based specialist in smart battery systems for electric mobility, has a new supply agreement with Wrightbus of Ballymena – which is now part of the Bamford Bus Company Ltd of Leatherhead, UK.
Forsee Power, a long term supplier for the electric bus programmes developed by Wrightbus, broadened its co-operation in 2016 alongside the first Wrightbus hydrogen buses – developing its high-power Pulse 2.5 technology batteries. Their extra-slim format modules, combined with high power, free up the space necessary for the integration of fuel cells, especially necessary in double deck buses such as the Streetdeck, which cannot integrate batteries in or on the roof, unlike single deck buses. The Streedeck H2 buses are claimed to achieve a range of 320km.
