Global Leaders
GS Yuasa was established in 2004 as a joint venture between two battery super powers – GS and Yuasa, both with a long history of development and growth.
Today GS Yuasa leads the world with innovative power solutions ranging from sophisticated technology powering the International Space Station and the manned research submersible “the Shinkai6500”, to state of the art batteries used in automobiles, motorcycles, marine, rail and aviation applications including the state-of-the-art Boeing 787 Dreamliner. GS Yuasa also utilises this same technology in it’s cutting-edge consumer and industrial use batteries and backup power systems.
Electric Cars
GS Yuasa is leading the way into the environmental age with an increased focus on clean energy and the development of next-generation batteries such as safe, high-performance lithium-ion batteries and nickel-metal hydride batteries for use in hybrid and electric vehicles.
Deep Sea Exploration
GS Yuasa provides the manned research submersible, the Shinkai6500, with its primary power source: compact, sophisticated batteries capable of resisting the extreme water pressure of the deep sea.
Electric Rail
GS Yuasa’s lithium-ion batteries installed in rubber tire trains eliminate the need for overhead wires. These trains can run solely on battery power.
Space Exploration
GS Yuasa’s innovations are helping mankind achieve its dream of space exploration by providing the advanced technology needed to survive the harsh environment of outer space – GS Yuasa batteries play a crucial role in the power supply system for the International Space Station.
Telecommunications
Throughout its long history, GS Yuasa has worked to create innovative technology and it is this commitment which serves as the foundation for GS Yuasa’s continuing efforts to explore new possibilities in the field of electrical energy under the corporate vision of “Innovation and Growth”.
Responding to today’s increasingly sophisticated needs our extensive range of next generation energy system lithium-ion batteries encompasses not only vehicle use but also products in a wide range of fields, from deep sea to aerospace, to meet the ever more sophisticated needs of the times. Throughout its long history, the GS Yuasa Group has worked to create innovative technology.
