Further strengthens the Company's leadership position in the market for industrial and heavy duty vehicles
TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / July 10, 2025 / Electrovaya Inc. ("Electrovaya" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:ELVA)(TSX:ELVA), a leading lithium-ion battery technology and manufacturing company, is pleased to announce that it has successfully completed UL2580 certification for 448 distinct models of its latest generation 24V, 36V, and 48V lithium-ion battery systems. The certification includes battery systems composed of its current 47Ah cell in addition to its 54Ah cell which will be mass produced at its facility in Jamestown, New York in 2026. The next generation models feature improved charge rates, energy density, ergonomics and overall performance. Notably, the new models also provide the highest energy densities of batteries used in the material handling industry, providing an additional competitive advantage. These next generation battery systems will start being made available to customers this year.
The UL2580 certification involved some of the most stringent safety testing standards in the industry and included fire propagation testing, vibration, shock and short circuit testing amongst other destructive testing.
"This is an important milestone as we prepare to launch our next generation of products for one of our key industrial markets," said Dr. Raj DasGupta, CEO of Electrovaya.
