HOUSTON, TEXAS (Ofelia Paredes, Energy Analytics Institute, 23.Jan.2025) — U Power Limited said its UOTTA battery-swapping technology for 2-wheeler and 3-wheeler electric vehicles (EVs) has been selected by Treep Mobility Group S.A.C., a motor or moto taxi operator in Peru. 

U Power has completed the pilot deployment in Peru, which includes 2 operational battery-swapping stations, 1 3-wheeler and 10 2-wheeler EVs, the company said 23 Jan. 2025 in an official statement.

Treep  plans to convert its fleet of traditional fuel-powered vehicles to UOTTA’s battery-swapping model, with total orders expected to exceed $1mn.

Treep endorses UOTTA’s shared battery-swapping model, recognizing its ability to maintain operational hours and revenue when transitioning from traditional fuel vehicles to EVs, while reducing operating costs by 30-40% compared to fuel vehicles. This green and economical transportation solution aligns with environmental development trends, Treep said.

“The UOTTA solution integrates AI technology through its cloud platform and station control system, effectively predicting customer demand and optimizing charging and swapping efficiency to enhance overall operational efficiency. The AI technology also provides targeted solutions based on operational data analysis of vehicles and swapping stations,” U Power said in the statement.
