Electric Retrofit Conversion
Electric retrofit is the certified conversion of gasoline and diesel engines to battery and hydrogen electric powertrains and systems, which we have made possible in France by creating the industry and ambitious industrial regulations (released in April 2020) and available in more than 80 countries now.
It is one of the most immediate and common-sense solutions for decarbonizing transportation, which is responsible for 130 million tons of greenhouse gases just for France, billions of tons worldwide, and for making everyday savings.
