LONDON (Reuters) - Britishvolt said on Wednesday that Monaco-based Scorpio Group had made a strategic investment in the electric vehicle (EV) battery startup and the two companies will research battery power and storage options for maritime shipping.

Britishvolt's "access to the UK's cutting-edge scientific community ensure that we will be able to work together to further accelerate green-propulsion and potentially power storage solutions for maritime," said Filippo Lauro, vice president of Scorpio, part of the same group as oil tanker company Scorpio Tankers and renewable energy firm Eneti.
