LEVA-EU member Greenway has announced its environmental, social and governance results from 2024, as it aims for a more responsible future across its value chain.
Greenway, a battery pack manufacturer that supplies markets including the light electric vehicle sector, has produced its first ESG report according to GRI guidelines, demonstrating its efforts towards a more responsible future.
The report that can be downloaded on LinkedIn includes information on Greenway’s response in its efforts to combat climate change.
Greenway quantifies its greenhouse emissions and explores multi-scenario decarbonization solutions as it aims to achieve renewable energy and net-zero emission goals. The company is active in improving its carbon management level by signing green power purchasing agreements and will increase its renewable energy usage further, with upcoming plans that include the installation of a rooftop photovoltaic project in its factory.
Greenway will be sharing key findings from its 2024 ESG report on its LinkedIn page in due course.
As a battery innovator of lithium-ion energy solutions for nearly two decades, the LEVA EU member expands on its commitment to long-term performance and sustainability as being central to its business strategy.
Founded in 2006 in Shenzhen, China, the company has grown into a major global supplier of batteries for e-bikes, e-motorcycles, electric scooters, and industrial applications. Today, Greenway produces 6.5 GWh of battery packs and cells annually, employs over 2,300 people, and reports €287 million in annual revenue.
Mo-Hua Yang, General Manager of Greenway Battery Europe, told Show Daily about the company’s distinct focus: “The battery market is largely dominated by automotive players, but our focus has always been on micromobility and consumer products.”
Micromobility at the core
While many competitors prioritize large-scale automotive solutions, Greenway has maintained a strategic emphasis on smaller-format batteries. Battery systems typically used in e-bikes, dirt bikes, scooters, and light industrial vehicles—generally below 10 kWh—make up the bulk of its output. Currently, micromobility accounts for 39% of Greenway’s revenue, followed by 30% from consumer electronics and 22% from energy storage systems.
Enhancing safety through advanced engineering
At Taipei Cycle 2025, Greenway showcased several safety-certified battery technologies, including models approved under EN50604-1 and UL2271 standards. Among its key innovations is the adoption of wire-bonding technology (replacing traditional spot welding), which has been licensed from LG and also used by Tesla. “This cell connection technology enhances heat distribution, safety, structural integrity, manufacturing efficiency and overall product quality,” notes Yang.
“Consumers want more capacity, but safety must evolve accordingly,” Yang said, underscoring the growing expectations in the e-mobility market.
Smart sustainability in battery design
Greenway is also advancing digital tools to improve battery longevity and support sustainability goals. The company is developing a data-driven platform that will help users and manufacturers monitor battery health in real time—aligned with upcoming Battery Regulation data requirements.
“The Battery Passport is a great opportunity for the industry,” Yang noted. “Real-time data will provide valuable insights into battery condition, helping to improve longevity, reuse and repurposing.”
In addition to software, Greenway is testing hardware solutions such as single-cell replacement with non-welded designs, which is currently undergoing long-term testing. The company also participates in European recycling initiatives like Bebat. “Sustainability should be part of battery design, not an afterthought,” Yang emphasized.
European expansion underway
To meet rising demand, Greenway opened its first production facility in Indonesia in 2024. The company is now preparing for European manufacturing, partnering with a local firm to accelerate its entry, offering faster delivery, and lowering its cost and carbon footprint, with production being expected to begin in 2026.
“Europe is a key market for us, and this new facility marks a major step forward,” Yang concluded.
The LEVA EU members captivated international audiences with their pioneering technologies for the global e-mobility sector in Shanghai, China.
Bafang
Bafang, with over 20 years of expertise in e-bike drive systems, unveiled a suite of advanced drive solutions tailored to diverse scenarios from urban commuting to extreme off-road adventures.
Among its highlights was the M560 Heavy-Duty Mountain Drive System, boasting a formidable 140Nm of torque and 750W output, redefining performance standards for mountainous terrain. The H730 Auto-Shifting 3-Speed Hub Motor, integrating Bafang’s proprietary Gear Variable Transmission (GVT) and torque sensor technologies, enables intelligent, seamless gear transitions without manual input. This system simplifies maintenance by eliminating external gear components while optimizing energy efficiency.
Bafang’s award-winning RG A510.D 5-speed Gear Hub, part of its GVT series, won the 2025 CHINA CYCLE Innovation Award. Designed for challenging environments like snow and sand, the hub withstands 200Nm torque and speeds of up to 60 km/h, thanks to a rigorously tested 5-speed mechanism engineered for high-performance use.

Greenway
Meanwhile, Greenway made a powerful statement with its EN50604-certified lithium battery solutions, showcasing a full range of products that meet Europe’s stringent safety standards. From in-tube and externally mounted batteries to range-extending and rear carrier models, Greenway’s offerings are tailored for diverse use cases and engineered with safety as the cornerstone.
The company’s flagship ZZ-ZZ209 and more accessible models like DZ-ZZ098 and DZ-ZZ027 underwent rigorous durability, shock, and environmental testing. These batteries are built to withstand real-world conditions—from crushing and combustion to extreme temperatures—demonstrating unmatched reliability.
Notably, Greenway’s NZ533 battery not only achieved EN50604 compliance but also earned UL2271 certification from Underwriters Laboratories, strengthening its competitive edge in the US market. Domestically, its “Gingu Bang” cell-powered solutions—CCC-certified—deliver high efficiency and robust performance across commuting, shared mobility, and off-road use cases.
Greenway’s full China Cycle recap can be found on its website.

Comments Off on Greenway expand their Danish joint venture, Viridus Manufacturing A/S, for battery production
In 2019, LEVA-EU member Greenway invested in a new battery pack manufacturing facility, Viridus Manufacturing A/S in Aarhus, Denmark. After 3 years of growth, the site was ready for expansion and doubled production capacity.
From the very start, the manufacturing factory had a focus on sustainability, running with zero net emissions. In order to improve zero-emission measurements, a completely new building was planned and constructed by the Danish Viridus team. The factory’s battery equipment, automation, and production know-how came from the Chinese Greenway team.
In August 2022 the Viridus team moved into the new site and started production. The building is carbon-neutral and packed with sustainable features like a wastewater recycling system, biodiversity gardens, CO2-neutral heat pump, reusable building materials, waste sorting, solar panels, bike charging stations, and a healthy indoor climate.
The Danish battery production is supplied by 100% renewable energy, and electric cars are used for internal transportation. Furthermore, all employees have access to training facilities, healthcare, and a healthy canteen environment.
The new site in Aarhus, Denmark, received a Gold DGNB German Sustainable Building Council certificate for the focus on sustainability and recyclability. Congratulations, Viridus team on fantastic work!
