Moment Energy to repurpose Chilean electric bus fleet batteries for stationary energy storage
Canadian energy storage company Moment Energy has announced a partnership with Copec to repurpose batteries from Chile’s electric bus fleet into stationary energy storage systems.The fleet is one of the largest outside of China, giving the partnership access to a significant volume of retired EV batteries as the first wave of buses reaches mid-life replacement cycles. 45MWh of early deployments planned The companies expect to deliver around 45MWh of storage capacity across near-term projects, with system sizes ranging from small commercial installations to multi-megawatt utility-scale sites. The repurposed batteries will be used to provide peak shaving, backup power, and renewable energy support. By extending battery life after they are removed […]
Why Logistics Parks and Fleet Depots Must Build EV Charging Stations: The New Energy Model for the Electric Logistics Era
1. Introduction The global transition to electric mobility is no longer limited to passenger cars. In 2025, logistics fleets — including electric light trucks, heavy-duty vehicles, and urban delivery vans — are rapidly replacing traditional fuel-powered vehicles. For logistics parks, warehousing centers, and fleet depots, building dedicated EV charging stations has shifted from being optional to being an operational necessity. As the world moves from the “fuel-based logistics cost model” to the “electric mobility cost model,” energy becomes a controllable business variable rather than an unpredictable expense. For logistics companies managing dozens or hundreds of vehicles, in-house EV charging infrastructure is not merely about convenience — it defines competitiveness, profitability, […]
