The RATP/CaetanoBus partnership powered by Forsee Power

Forsee Power, the expert in smart battery systems and a key player in the electromobility market, has been working for two years with the leading Portuguese bus and coach manufacturer, CaetanoBus.

Forsee Power will equip CaetanoBus’ hydrogen bus with its Pulse 15 battery system.

Forsee Power develops state-of-the-art technologies that answer all the needs and constraints imposed by the electric bus market: autonomy, power, life cycles, and safety. Forsee Power is tackling the challenge of hydrogen propulsion with its high-power Pulse 15 batteries. Batteries are installed on the roof and associated with 5 hydrogen tanks. Thus, the H2.City Gold can travel up to 400 km in zero-emission mode with the combination of Forsee Power battery systems and fuel cells.

A partnership between CaetanoBus and RATP has been announced for a first hydrogen bus in Paris. As the Parisian operator pointed out in its press release on November 26th: «RATP wants to master all technologies and continues to test new energies».

Christophe Gurtner, CEO of Forsee Power adds, “We are proud to support CaetanosBus in this new hydrogen propulsion solution. Their partnership with RATP once again proves that this key transport operator is dedicated to making the French capital a clean and sustainable city. The same values ​​that drive the Forsee Power’s teams everyday “.
