Electra Vehicles, Inc. offers high-tech solutions to accelerate energy innovations in the electric vehicle, grid, robotics, and drone space for optimized sustainable electrification. Electra's EnPower software offers the fastest energy storage design process and simulation available, and allows for the engineering of multi-chemistry energy storage. Once created, these energy storage designs are controlled by the pioneering EVE.Ai machine learning smart controls for optimized use of both single- and multi-chemistry storage. While others search for new chemistries to power the future, we enable the use of today's batteries and capacitors in dual- and multi-chemistry configurations to create the energy storage of tomorrow right now.
