American Battery Solutions (ABS) has formed a strategic partnership with SCAG Power Equipment, a division of Wisconsin-based Metalcraft of Mayville, to provide lithium-ion battery technology for the Scag RC Extreme Slope Mower.
The partnership is set up to run through 2027. Deliveries of ABS’s Alliance Intelligent Battery Series systems are already underway from the company’s Springboro, Ohio manufacturing facility.
The ABS Alliance batteries will be launched in the Scag RC Extreme Slope Mower, enabling higher power and reduced fuel consumption. The scalable Alliance series can be used in a variety of different mowers in the fleet.
“Our Applications Engineering team collaborated closely with Metalcraft to adapt the Alliance I48V-3.0 battery for this application. With industry-leading energy density and a scalable design, the Alliance series is built to withstand the physical demands and thermal challenges of commercial landscaping equipment,” said Subhash Dhar, ABS founder and CEO.
