Eatron Opens Tokyo Office Following Selection for Tokyo Metropolitan Government's Prestigious Green Transformation Program

TOKYO, May 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Eatron Technologies Limited, a UK-based developer of AI-powered battery optimization software platform, has established its Japan office in Tokyo following its selection for the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's GX (Green Transformation) Support Program for Foreign Companies.

This program is designed to attract and support overseas companies with advanced technologies that can contribute to Japan's decarbonization and sustainability goals. Eatron was one of seven companies selected through a competitive process, which included 59 applications from 20 countries and regions.

Eatron develops Intelligent Optimization Software for lithium-ion batteries, which integrates AI, physical models, and cloud-edge architecture to improve the safety, performance, and lifetime of the batteries in operation. The software is used across a wide range of applications including electric vehicles (EVs), light mobility, commercial vehicles, and energy storage systems (ESS). Key functions include accurate estimation of battery State of Charge (SoC) and State of Health (SoH), which are critical to ensure high performance and longevity enabling second-life battery applications and supporting a circular battery economy.

The establishment of the Tokyo office extends Eatron's global coverage and enhances its collaboration with automotive OEMs, battery pack suppliers, Tier 1s, and ESS integrators in Japan.

Eatron is currently active in several global research and industry consortia, supporting areas such as enhanced battery safety, battery swapping, modular battery system optimization, and fleet-level battery analytics. These technologies aim to improve cost efficiency and flexibility in electrification strategies.

The Tokyo office will also serve as the base for Eatron's future local hiring and partnerships, with a view to expanding technical and commercial operations in Japan over the next five years. Initial hires will support engineering, business development, and customer success roles.

"We would like to thank the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and the review committee for their support," said Dr Umut Genc, CEO of Eatron. "Our aim is to contribute intelligent, scalable software solutions to support Japan's goals in electrification and sustainable energy."

Eatron Opens Tokyo Office Following Selection for Tokyo Metropolitan Government's Prestigious Green Transformation Program

BEIJING, Jan. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- On December 29, the "Forging the Path to National Strength: China's Manufacturing Achievements Under the 14th Five-Year Plan," jointly organized by the National Museum of China and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, officially opened at the National Museum of China, showcasing more than 300 top national achievements. GAC's "National Outstanding Engineer Team" successfully developed both the Magazine Battery and the Solid-State Battery, which were selected for the exhibition.

The GAC Magazine Battery is the first battery system to pass both the nail penetration no-flame and non-ignition safety tests. By utilizing ultra-high intrinsic safety cells, an all-weather "vehicle-end + cloud-based" active safety monitoring system, and a multi-dimensional safety protection system, the Magazine Battery achieves three layers of protection: core, active, and passive. Its safety performance far exceeds the electric vehicles traction battery safety requirements (GB38031-2025), which will take effect on July 1, 2026. Currently, the Magazine Battery has a cumulative deployment of 1.3 million vehicles with zero spontaneous combustion and over 50 billion kilometers of safe travel, providing users with robust safety assurance for every journey.

GAC's self-developed large-capacity solid-state battery has achieved an energy density exceeding 400 Wh/kg and easily passes rigorous safety tests such as 200°C thermal chamber and nail penetration tests, effectively addressing users' range anxiety and safety concerns. Innovations in materials and processes have placed the solid-state battery at the forefront of the industry in key indicators such as safety, energy density, and cycle life, providing a superior power solution for the future development of NEVs. Currently, a pilot production line for GAC's solid-state battery has been established, capable of mass-producing vehicle-grade solid-state batteries over 60 Ah, marking a critical step toward the goal of full vehicle integration by 2026.

Over the years, GAC has been steadily enhancing its competitiveness through innovations across intelligent connectivity, NEV powertrains technologies, and forward-looking technologies. Looking ahead, GAC will continue to deepen its efforts in the intelligent connected NEV field, leveraging more leading technological achievements to drive industry progress.
