Micromobility products, electric vehicles that weigh less than 500 kilograms and operate as a low-speed electric vehicle, typically 25 miles per hour (mpH) or less, are rapidly growing in popularity and diversity. And to keep pace with these innovative products entering the market, new standards are emerging to evaluate the safety of the battery, electrical and charging systems. These new standards for safety will help ensure energy is governed and used appropriately through the thousands of cycles of micromobility device charges and discharges.
We evaluate, test and certify micromobility devices to international, national and regional regulations to help manufacturers achieve robust safety designs for their innovative products. To do this, we assess the safety of the battery packs and battery management systems to minimize the potential risk of fire, explosion and electric shock during real-world use for e-bikes, hoverboards, electric scooters and other electric personal transporters. UL Solutions is recognized by Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) as a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL) to certify micromobility products to UL 2849, the Standard for Electrical Systems for eBikes and UL 2272, the Standard for Electrical Systems for Personal E-Mobility Devices.
