Company Summary

Tanktwo provides a solution for rapid replenishment of electrical energy, which can for example be used to recharge an electrical car in approximately 3 minutes. In such case, all the benefits of an EV are retained, but the major stumbling block of long recharge times are removed. Our B2B customers are battery manufacturers, automotive integrators, energy distributors ("gas stations"), and component suppliers.
