Stryten Energy Expands Domestic Manufacturing to Boost U.S. Energy Storage Capacity by 10 Gigawatts
In a bold move to bolster American energy security and resilience, Stryten Energy LLC, a leading U.S.-based energy storage solutions provider, has unveiled an ambitious plan to expand its domestic manufacturing capacity. This initiative aims to increase the company’s total production capacity to 24 gigawatts (GW), adding 10 GW of new energy storage manufacturing capabilities. The expansion will support a wide range of critical applications, including military operations, long-duration energy storage (LDES), transportation, material handling, and grid reliability.
This strategic investment underscores Stryten Energy’s commitment to meeting the growing energy demands of the nation while reducing reliance on foreign supply chains. By leveraging advanced manufacturing production tax credits, the company is accelerating its capacity growth and reinforcing the domestic industrial base. With 11 manufacturing and battery component plants across the United States, Stryten Energy employs over 2,500 workers who produce batteries for diverse sectors such as military and government, data centers, automotive, and material handling.
Strengthening U.S. Energy Security
“Energy security means continuous access to reliable sources of power,” said Mike Judd, President and Chief Executive Officer of Stryten Energy. “The path to American energy security can and must rely upon domestic companies like Stryten, who manufacture batteries that keep supply chains running and critical infrastructure supplied with the backup power required to keep their operations running smoothly.”
Judd emphasized that scaling up domestic production is essential to achieving true energy resilience. “Our investments to significantly increase gigawatt capacity across our footprint will help support the growing energy demand and achieve our nation’s goal of true energy resilience,” he added.
As power demands continue to rise, scaling up the production of all reliable battery chemistries is crucial. Stryten Energy is uniquely positioned to lead this effort with its diverse portfolio of domestically manufactured battery solutions. The company utilizes advanced technologies, including lead-acid, lithium-ion, and vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFB), to meet the needs of various industries.
Economic Impact and Job Creation
With manufacturing facilities in Kansas, Georgia, Iowa, Virginia, and Arkansas, Stryten Energy’s expansion plans are expected to create hundreds of high-paying manufacturing jobs. These jobs will not only strengthen the workforce but also deliver significant economic benefits to surrounding communities.
In addition to job creation, Stryten operates a vertically integrated supply chain that ensures a reliable source of critical materials for battery production. Its plants in Pennsylvania, New York, Indiana, Missouri, and Wisconsin provide essential components to its factories and the broader U.S. battery manufacturing industry. This integrated approach minimizes dependency on foreign imports and strengthens the domestic supply chain.
Advancing Sustainable Practices
Sustainability is at the core of Stryten Energy’s operations. As part of its expansion plan, the company is increasing its domestic processing capacity for recycled plastics recovered from spent batteries. These recycled materials are used to produce new battery components, contributing to a circular economy that reduces waste and conserves natural resources.
Additionally, Stryten recently opened a state-of-the-art lithium battery assembly plant in Georgia. This facility supports military and industrial battery needs using proprietary lithium module technology. Through a partnership with Dragonfly Energy, headquartered in Reno, Nevada, Stryten is bringing advanced lithium batteries to its automotive aftermarket and battery distributor partners, further expanding its reach and impact.
Pioneering Long-Duration Energy Storage Solutions
To address the growing demand for long-duration energy storage (LDES), Stryten Energy has launched Storion Energy LLC, a joint venture between one of its affiliates, Stryten Critical E-Storage LLC, and subsidiaries of Largo Inc. (NASDAQ, TSX: LGO) and Largo Clean Energy Corp. (LCE). Storion Energy focuses on removing barriers to entry for battery manufacturers by providing price-competitive electrolytes for vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFB).
Vanadium redox flow batteries are ideal for LDES applications due to their ability to store large amounts of energy over extended periods. By enabling domestic sourcing of electrolytes, Storion Energy is helping U.S. manufacturers reduce costs and improve competitiveness in the global market.
A Commitment to Innovation and Resilience
Stryten Energy’s expansion reflects its dedication to innovation and its role in advancing the U.S. energy landscape. By increasing domestic manufacturing capacity, the company is addressing critical gaps in the supply chain and ensuring that the nation has access to reliable, sustainable energy storage solutions.
As the demand for energy storage continues to grow, Stryten Energy is well-positioned to meet the needs of its customers and partners. Whether it’s supporting military operations, enhancing grid reliability, or powering electric vehicles, the company’s comprehensive suite of battery technologies plays a vital role in shaping the future of energy.
Join the Movement Toward Energy Independence
Stryten Energy’s expansion is more than just a business milestone—it’s a step toward a more secure and resilient energy future for the United States. By investing in domestic manufacturing, creating jobs, and advancing sustainable practices, the company is setting a new standard for energy storage providers.
