Swapping EV batteries rather than waiting for them to recharge is an idea that's catching on. California startup Ample just landed a big grant from its homestate to expand its swappable battery capacity. Great conversation with founder and CEO Khaled Hassounah about his company's expansion and the benefits of battery swapping. forbes.com/sites/edgarsten/202

On making a battery swapping EVs system for scooters.

"Today, Gogoro battery-swapping stations are as common as gas stations in Taiwan, and the network supports nearly 400,000 battery swaps a day, by over 526,000 riders. Last year, according to the Taiwanese government, 12% of all scooters sold in Taiwan were electric, and over 90% of those relied on Gogoro batteries."
