Cleanova is a set of plug-in hybrid vehicles by the Société de Véhicules Electriques (SVE), a joint venture between Dassault, Heuliez and Hydro-Québec. Cleanova II is based on Renault Kangoo. In January 2010, SVE was taken over by Dow Kokam (USA Dow Chemical and US-Korean Townsend Kokam). In 2009, Dow Kokam received a $161 million U.S. Department of Energy Grant for Next-Generation Battery Production for the hybrid and electric vehicle markets. The Michigan-based facility - Townsend Kokam Advanced Battery - is expected to produce enough batteries to supply 60,000 hybrid or electric vehicles per year. Three battery technologies are used in the Cleanova: Li-Mn 2 O 4 , Li-FePO 4 , and Li-NiCoAl, with storage capacity adjustable to customer needs (16 to 30 kWh). Half the battery capacity can be restored within 30 minutes. Speeds of up to can be achieved in electric mode. The French postal services company "la Poste" ordered some 500 Kangoo Cleanova's.
