The DP Flex is a relatively compact battery module with advanced, proprietary lithium battery technology which provides significant energy density advantages due to its light weight of 63 kilograms and integration with an electric vehicle chassis.

The DP Flex is the first of its kind by Durapower and provides several benefits such as:

  • Cutting-edge technology maximises energy density and efficiency
  • Lightweight design with no compromise on structural integrity
  • Able to use the electric vehicle chassis as the battery pack enclosure[1], resulting in potential significant energy density benefits from the overall lighter weight
  • Fast pantographic charging design allows vehicles to travel longer ranges with minimum battery load
  • Flexible system design to meet various heavy-dutyapplication needs and/or load cycles
  • Applicable in all weather conditions and seasons
  • Second-life deployment capability reduces total cost of ownership
  • Has attained UN ECE R100 (United Nations Economic Commission for Europe Regulation No.100), UN38.3 (United Nations 38.3), International Electrotechnical Commission 62660-2, and International Electrotechnical Commission 62619 certifications

The flexible, modular design of the DP Flex enables it to be easily adapted for various applications, including using electric vehicle chassis as the battery pack enclosure, or installation into cabinets or containers for stationary energy storage system applications. DP Flex adds to Durapower's existing product portfolio of battery solutions, and translates into compatibility with a wide range of commercial vehicles.

Mr Kelvin Lim, Chief Executive Officer of Durapower Group commented, "We are pleased to showcase our lightweight next generation commercial electric vehicle battery module that is also flexible enough to be conveniently installed for stationary battery energy storage system applications and second-life deployment. The high energy density DP Flex also highlights Durapower's technical capability and innovation to push the boundaries of the energy storage industry to offer more efficient clean energy solutions to the world."
