ARTS Energy, Manufacturer of High-Performance Batteries, Announces the Acquisition of E4V, Designer and Manufacturer of Batteries for Mobility Applications

Nersac (France), June 9, 2023: ARTS Energy, a French manufacturer and major player in electrical energy storage, has acquired Energy For Vehicles (E4V), a specialist in the design and manufacture of batteries for mobility applications. The acquisition was approved on the 6th of June by the Commercial Court of Le Mans (France) after 15 days of deliberation.

Synergy between two French battery manufacturers to boost performance

ARTS Energy is a French manufacturer based in Nersac, Charente region, specialising in the design and manufacture of high-performance batteries for the professional market.
ARTS Energy stands out for its multi-technology approach (Ni-Cd, Ni-MH and Li-ion) and its cell assembly lines.

ARTS Energy has announced the acquisition of E4V, a Manche-based company renowned for its specialization in the design and manufacture of batteries for no-license vehicles, small
commercial vehicles and navigation. Following financial difficulties linked to the increase in stocks to meet supply deadlines, the company was placed under the protection of the
Commercial Court.

ARTS Energy seized the opportunity of this acquisition to create a powerful synergy between two complementary players. The two companies share a common vision focused on
research and development, internationalisation and the production of high-quality batteries.

” The acquisition of E4V represents a considerable strategic opportunity for ARTS Energy. By combining our strengths, we are forming a solid alliance that positions us as a major player
in the battery sector in France. We are highly complementary in terms of R&D, manufacturing and the internationalization of our business “ comments Frédéric Dittmar, CEO of ARTS Energy.

The birth of a major technological hub for mobility

Thanks to this acquisition, ARTS Energy is extending its presence in the mobility market by integrating a recognised player in this field. This move brings ARTS Energy closer to its objective of accelerating growth in the mobility market (e-bike, e-scooter, small vehicle).

The new entity will represent a major technology center in the field of batteries and mobility in particular. With a total of 300 employees spread over two industrial sites, the ambition is to achieve sales of 100 million euros within 3 years.
