Battery swapping is emerging as one of the alternative solutions to accelerate the electrification of transport, particularly in sectors where downtime, charging infrastructure constraints, and vehicle utilization are major concerns. Instead of waiting for a battery to recharge, drivers exchange a depleted battery for a fully charged one at a dedicated swapping station, often in just a few minutes
