What ARTS Energy does

ARTS Energy generates revenue primarily through hardware sales of custom-designed and standard battery cells and packs, priced per project rather than via published price lists. The go-to-market is sales-led B2B, with five regional sales managers covering France, the UK, the US, Nordic/Germany/EE/Asia, Southern Europe/NL/BE/Africa, Spain/LatAm/Italy, and USA/Canada/Oceania/MEA, supplemented by a distributor portal for indirect channel access. A secondary revenue stream is professional services for full custom battery development (needs analysis through series production) with feasibility feedback typically delivered in under two weeks, and a third stream is subscription/recurring revenue from IoT connectivity services bundled with connected batteries (500MB international data for up to 10 years). The company employs ~300 people across two industrial sites post the June 2023 acquisition of E4V (now ARTS Energy Mobility), and disclosed 31.5M€ in 2025 sales with a stated ambition to reach 100M€ within three years. Cell supply is sourced from major OEMs including FDK, Furukawa, LG, Panasonic, Samsung, and Sony, with assembly, BMS integration, and quality control performed in France under ISO 14001, REACH, and ROHS compliance.

Core offering

ARTS Energy is a French manufacturer that designs and produces high-performance rechargeable battery cells and packs across four chemistries (Li-ion, LiFePO4, Ni-MH, Ni-Cd) for industrial and professional applications. The company delivers both standard catalog products and fully custom battery solutions, integrated with proprietary Battery Management Systems (BMS) and optional IoT connectivity for real-time monitoring and geolocation. Production is based at the Nersac site in France, complemented by the ARTS Energy Mobility subsidiary focused on electric mobility applications.

Product overview

ARTS Energy is a French manufacturer of high-performance batteries offering multiple technologies including Li-ion, LiFePO4, Ni-MH, and Ni-Cd. The company provides both standard battery products (such as the 48V and 77V LiFePO4 ranges, various Ni-MH ranges like VHT and VHP, and Ni-Cd ranges including Ecolife, VNT, and VRE) as well as custom battery solutions. The product portfolio is complemented by proprietary BMS (Battery Management System) technology with patents held for all technology types, and IoT-connected battery monitoring features for real-time tracking and diagnostics. The company operates through its main production site in Nersac, France, and its subsidiary ARTS Energy Mobility (acquired in 2023).
