Recently, REPT BATTERO and Yufeng Future officially signed a strategic cooperation agreement and reached in-depth cooperation in the field of eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft) aircraft energy solutions. This cooperation marks that REPT BATTERO’s technical strength and market layout in the field of new energy have been recognized by the industry again, injecting strong impetus into the commercialization process of low-altitude aircraft.
The endurance and flight performance of eVTOL aircraft are important technical challenges in their commercialization process. To this end, eVTOL aircraft batteries need to have higher energy density and higher rate discharge capacity than automotive-grade batteries, and meet aviation-grade safety and airworthiness standards.
As a global leader in the new energy industry, REPT BATTERO has become Yufeng Future’s strategic partner for lithium battery products with its deep accumulation in the new energy field. Aiming at the pain points of the market, REPT BATTERO will provide customized high-nickel battery solutions for Yufeng Future’s global eVTOL aircraft projects, providing comprehensive support for its product performance and airworthiness certification from battery cells to systems.
Liu Shiyi, Chairman of Yufeng Future, said at the signing ceremony: “We look forward to introducing the advanced battery technology and production processes accumulated by REPT BATTERO in the field of new energy into the field of electric aviation through strategic cooperation, further improving the performance and safety of the manned eVTOL under development, accelerating the airworthiness and commercialization of this new type of transportation, and providing more convenient and environmentally friendly air traffic solutions for global users.”
Wu Yanjun, executive director and secretary of the board of directors of REPT BATTERO, said: “This strategic cooperation with Yufeng Future is an important measure for both parties to adapt to the development trend of the times and achieve complementary advantages. We believe that through close cooperation between the two parties, we can give full play to our respective advantages in technology, market, resources, etc., and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results.”
Zhang Xiaocong, general manager of REPT BATTERO Passenger Vehicle Division, said: “We will give full play to our technological advantages and supply chain capabilities to provide safe, efficient and reliable energy solutions for eVTOL aircraft, and help accelerate the commercialization of low-altitude aircraft.”
Rongyi Investment, as a common shareholder of REPT BATTERO and Yufeng Future and the promoter of this cooperation, attended the signing ceremony.
Zhao Ju, senior partner of Rongyi Investment, said: “Rongyi has been actively promoting resource sharing and in-depth cooperation among invested companies, promoting high-quality development of the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, and jointly creating an industrial ecosystem. As a joint investment institution of REPT BATTERO and Yufeng Future, Rongyi believes that both parties will give full play to their respective advantages in their respective fields, achieve win-win results, promote the deep integration of innovative technologies and innovative products, and create a new air travel solution.”
As a leading enterprise in the field of low-altitude aircraft, Yufeng Future highly recognizes REPT BATTERO’s technical strength and product quality, which further consolidates REPT BATTERO’s industry position in the field of new energy. In the future, the two parties will work together to promote the deep integration of new energy technology and low-altitude economic industry, and jointly open a new chapter in the development of low-altitude aircraft.
