He said: “An important step has been taken to end curiosity on this topic, as SIRO has been established in order to develop energy storage solutions.
And in partnership between “TOG” and “Varasys Energy” with the aim of producing units and battery packs that will power the car.”
It is planned that “Siro” will establish a factory near the car production center in the “Gmlek” region in the northwest of the country, and start its activity to produce a locally made battery.
