Log9 Mobility, a wholly-owned subsidiary of advanced battery-tech startup Log9 Materials, today announced that it has availed INR 10 crore debt-financing facility from sustainable energy financing firm cKers to accelerate the deployment of EVs integrated with Log9 Material’s fast-charging batteries under a Mobility as a Service (MaaS) model, a company statement said.
Log9 will be developing advanced cell chemistries which can be used in battery storage technologies across mobility and stationary storage solutions added to the company. These batteries will be optimised for Indian conditions and offer 9x power, 9x cycle life and 9x performance – being charged from 0-100% in 12 minutes for a 2-wheeler and 35 minutes for a 3-wheeler respectively.
