We’re thrilled to announce the official kickoff of the Sustainable and Energy Efficient battery solutions for the RIS EV market (EVBAT) project held in Lecco, Italy on September 30, 2025, hosted by VENT MOTO The event marked a dynamic start to a collaborative journey toward greener transportation solutions.
About the EVBAT Project
The EVBAT project addresses the growing needs of the battery sector by adopting a sustainable by design approach to next generation battery development. With a focus on swappable batteries for electric mobility, starting with E-scooters, EVBAT will deliver:
- Up to 30% CO₂ savings across the battery value chain
- Reduced charging times, addressing one of the most crucial challenges in the sector
- A circular and user-friendly solution for the future of urban mobility
Meet the EVBAT Consortium
The project brings together a diverse and interdisciplinary team of innovators from academia, research, and industry:
- HYBA (Italy) – Lead partner and producer of the innovative swappable battery system
- VENT MOTO (Italy) – Vehicle prototype developer
- LEVOX (Spain) – battery swapping station prototype developer for the pilot
- SE&C IKE (Greece) – Project management and dissemination
- RĪGAS TEHNISKĀ UNIVERSITĀTE (Latvia) – Life Cycle Sustainability Assessment and Critical Raw Material Evaluation
Funding & Support
This project is proudly funded by EIT RawMaterials and the Horizon Europe programme, driving innovation in sustainable mobility across Europe.
