Forte Battery to Showcase Lithium Primary Batteries for Smart Metering at Enlit Europe 2026
Time：
2026-11-06
Wuhan Forte Battery Co., Ltd. will exhibit at Enlit Europe 2026, the flagship gathering of Europe's energy transition, held from 10 to 12 November 2026 at Messe Wien (VIECON – Vienna Congress & Convention Center) in Vienna, Austria. Forte will present its lithium primary battery portfolio and hybrid power solutions for smart metering and grid infrastructure at Booth B.192, Hall B.
Event at a Glance
| Event | Enlit Europe 2026 |
| Date | 10–12 November 2026 |
| Venue | Messe Wien (VIECON – Vienna Congress & Convention Center), Vienna, Austria |
| Booth | B.192 (Hall B) |
| Focus | Lithium primary batteries for smart metering & grid infrastructure |
Enlit Europe brings together utilities, grid operators, meter manufacturers and technology providers from more than 140 countries, with 750+ exhibitors and 15,000+ attendees expected in Vienna. For Forte, it is a direct opportunity to meet the European metering and smart-grid supply chain in one place.
What Forte Will Bring to Vienna
Forte's exhibit is built around one question that every meter designer faces: how do you guarantee a decade of service from a device that cannot easily be serviced? Four product families answer it from different angles.
| Product Family | What It Delivers |
|---|---|
| ER Li-SOCl₂ Battery 3.6 V | The workhorse for smart water, gas, heat and electricity meters. Specific energy up to 430 Wh/kg, self-discharge ≤1% per year, shelf life beyond 10 years, operating range -55°C to +85°C. |
ER High Temperature Battery 3.6V | For meter pits, valve chambers and outdoor cabinets where heat is the real limit. The high-temperature series operates from -40°C to +150°C without sacrificing shelf life. |
| CR Li-MnO₂ Battery 3.0 V | Higher discharge current with no voltage delay after storage. Suited to devices that need instant readiness, including security and portable medical equipment. |
| ER+FPC (Capacitor) hybrid power solution | Combines a Li-SOCl₂ cell with a battery capacitor. The capacitor absorbs transmission bursts, the cell supplies long-term energy — long life and high pulse output in one package. |
Why Pulse Capability Decides Smart Meter Reliability
A smart meter spends most of its life drawing only microamps. Then, several times a day, it wakes up and transmits — and the instantaneous current can jump to hundreds of milliamps, sometimes more than one amp. Li-SOCl₂ chemistry offers excellent energy density but limited burst capability. If the transmission peak exceeds the cell's pulse rating, voltage collapses, and the result is a failed transmission or a device reset.
Forte's ER+FPC solution addresses this at the system level: the capacitor handles the burst, the cell handles the endurance. While the device sleeps, the cell trickle-charges the capacitor at microamp levels; when a transmission is required, the capacitor releases the current instantly. The battery never faces the surge directly, and communication success rates hold up — including at low temperatures, where pulse capability normally degrades fastest.
Certified for European Deployments
Forte's batteries are certified and tested to the standards European metering programmes require: RoHS, REACH, CE, IEC and UN38.3, supported by ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 management systems. Documentation and test reports are available to project teams during evaluation.
