Lotus
Developing the first British Hypercar
In 2019, Fortescue WAE entered a strategic technical partnership with Lotus, with the companies sharing
research and development into advanced propulsion technologies. Central to that partnership was the Evija,
featuring the world’s most power dense EV road-car battery, outputting 2000kW, and delivering world-leading
fast charge times.
Extreme E
Building a sustainable future of motorsport
Following the success of delivering batteries into Formula E, Fortescue WAE went on to win the battery contract for an all-new fully electric off-road series, Extreme E. Designed to highlight the impact of climate change around the globe, Extreme E races races across everything from Arctic tundra (-10°C) to desert sand dunes (40°C). Despite these harsh environments, the battery system has delivered 99.9% in-race reliability whilst delivering sporting equity and ultra-high performance.

Electrifying the 24hrs of Le Mans
As exclusive battery supplier to the Le Mans-Daytona Hybrid (LMDh) set of regulations, Fortescue WAE were tasked with developing an ultra-high power battery system capable of relentless operation over a 24-hour race period. Powered by Elysia Embedded, the system can operate continuously in-part due to the use of Elysia’s Always-On Balancing algorithm, ensuring the system remains reliable and in balance throughout the race event. Furthermore, Elysia’s model-based State-of-Power algorithm increases the system’s usable-energy density by more than 30%, by enabling ultra high-power operation even at extreme low and high states of charge.
