Opinion: How co-ordinated multi-robot systems are transforming EV battery swapping

March 27, 2025 by David Edwards

As electric vehicles transform our transportation landscape, the demand for innovative charging solutions grows. Battery swapping – where depleted batteries are quickly replaced with fully charged ones – offers a compelling alternative to traditional charging.

Yet, this seemingly straightforward concept requires sophisticated engineering behind the scenes. The complexity extends beyond what single-robot automation can effectively handle, pushing the industry toward coordinated multi-robot systems that work in concert to achieve what individual robots cannot.

Single robots have revolutionized many industries but face significant limitations with multi-stage operations. [Read more…] about Opinion: How co-ordinated multi-robot systems are transforming EV battery swapping
