U Power Limited Introduces UOTTA, Revolutionizing EV Battery Swapping

Published

on

SHANGHAI, March 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Youxu New Energy, a subsidiary of U Power Limited focusing on renewable energy solutions, has unveiled the UOTTA™ intelligent battery swapping system, providing power battery swapping solutions for a range of vehicles, including heavy trucks, light trucks, buses, taxis, etc. Currently, the battery swapping technology for light four-wheeled electric vehicles (EVs) and two-wheeled EVs is undergoing market validation in China. The company plans to collaborate with partners across Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Europe to bring this service to local courier companies.

The battery swapping and sharing technology for two-wheeled and light four-wheeled EVs involves the use of identical battery cells and packaging methods. The battery packs for both EV models are stored in a single battery swapping station (BSS), from which customers can take a single battery module for two-wheeled EVs and two to four modules for light four-wheeled EVs when they need to swap batteries. The battery swapping process is straightforward and user-friendly: the user only needs to verify their identity at the BSS using their mobile phone and then follows the prompts to access and swap their batteries.

With the launch of the UOTTA™ technology,  Youxu New Energy has successfully addressed the challenges of interoperability between light four-wheeled EVs, two-wheeled EVs, BSSs and battery packs, allowing for the unified remote management of the UOTTA™ cloud platform. For customers, as long as their EVs are internet-enabled, they can access the system to identify the location of the nearest BSS, choose the best route to get there, and even reserve battery packs in advance. This functionality ensures the delivery of a faster and more efficient battery-swapping service.

The battery swapping and sharing technology for two-wheeled and light four-wheeled EVs is poised to significantly benefit courier companies by providing them with more convenient and cost-effective options for building electric transportation fleets. By purchasing or leasing two-wheeled and light four-wheeled EVs without batteries, and leasing batteries for these EVs based on a monthly or annual plan, these firms can save up to 30% in vehicle acquisition costs compared to previous purchasing methods. This approach also enables courier companies to save on the costs and time associated with charging without being concerned about battery degradation over time. As a result, the battery swapping model can help delivery service providers enhance operational efficiency and lower operating expenses.

With the continuous evolution of battery technologies, U Power Limited foresees the broadening application of the battery swapping and sharing technology to a wider range of vehicle models. The firm also anticipates the technology to increase the attractiveness of the battery swapping model, especially for commercial transport vehicles.

Published

By

BEIJING, May 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Envision, a global leader in green technology, today announced a strategic collaboration with Brazilian government during President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s official visit to China. In the meeting between President Lula and Envision’s Chairman Lei Zhang, the two leaders exchanged views on Brazil’s green energy transition, the development of Net-Zero Industrial Parks, and  joint efforts on key technologies including sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), green hydrogen and ammonia.

Envision will develop Latin America’s first Net-Zero Industrial Park in Brazil. Anchored by the production of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), the park will establish a complete green fuel value chain while advancing the development of green hydrogen and green ammonia. By leveraging Envision’s renewable energy systems, the park aims to establish a “green oil” ecosystem and accelerate Brazil’s green industrial  transition.

Lei Zhang, Chairman of Envision, said: “Brazil is crucial to the global green transition of human society. It is poised to become the world’s most significant green oil production hub, as it possesses both abundant biomass and renewable electricity needed for green oil production. Envision is driving the advancement of cost competitiveness of green oil through technological innovation. Leveraging our pioneering Net-Zero Industrial Park model, we have built the world’s largest and most cost-effective green hydrogen and ammonia project in Chifeng, Inner Mongolia. We are committed to putting the vision of a community with a shared future for mankind into action, leveraging China’s new energy innovations to bring a new global prosperity.”

As the inventor of the Net-Zero Industrial Park model, Envision’s first-of-its-kind park, developed in partnership with the city of Ordos, has been recognized for several consecutive years as a leading example in the World Transitioning Industrial Clusters Report released by World Economic Forum. Building on this success, Envision is now scaling the model across diverse regions, including Inner Mongolia, Jiangsu, and Spain, tailoring each park to local resources and industrial strengths.

SOUTHFIELD, Mich., May 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — DENSO, a leading mobility supplier, announced that DENSO Manufacturing Athens Tennessee, Inc. (DMAT), has donated $9,000 to local high schools, giving each $1,000 to support their Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) programs.

Lenoir City High SchoolMeigs County High SchoolMcMinn Central High SchoolMcMinn County High SchoolPolk County High SchoolSequoyah High SchoolSweetwater High SchoolTellico Plains High SchoolWalker Valley High School

As one of the world’s largest automotive suppliers, DENSO strives to foster a work environment that prioritizes safety, collaboration and quality.

Last year, as part of DMAT’s continuous efforts to improve metrics in those focus areas, the location launched a friendly competition among internal teams. It centered on a simple idea: the better your group performed, the more your group could raise up to $1,000 for local high school STEM programs.

Motivated to deliver for each other and local students, each team hit their key metrics by the conclusion of the year-long competition this spring. As a result, DMAT awarded the full donation amounts to the recipient schools on behalf of its employees.

“This competition represents the best of DENSO – our teams working together to not only continuously improve, but also support the communities where we live and work,” said Steven Hayes, director of Manufacturing at DMAT. “We are grateful to channel the success of the project into a positive outcome for local schools and do our small part in contributing to technical education. These schools, and their STEM programs, are vital to preparing future innovators.” 

DENSO is always looking for ways to give back to the places it calls home, including in and around Athens. DMAT is a supporter of the United Way of McMinn and Meigs County, The East Tennessee Japanese School, Adopt-A-School programs, and other local initiatives.

DMAT has produced leading powertrain parts and systems in Athens for more than 20 years. In October 2024, DENSO announced a $100 million expansion at the location that would enhance its ability to produce a wider range of solutions, such as DENSO’s heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) product.
