Electrovaya joins DOE-funded energy storage project for data centers

Electrovaya Inc. (NASDAQ: ELVA) announced its participation in a U.S. Department of Energy-funded project to develop energy storage systems for critical infrastructure applications. The project, led by Binghamton University, received a $5 million award from the DOE's Critical Facility Energy Resilience program.

The initiative will focus on designing and deploying a 1.2 MWh battery system at Binghamton University's Center for Energy-Smart Electronic Systems. The system will be integrated into a data center test environment to demonstrate peak shaving, backup power, and load management capabilities.

Electrovaya will contribute its Infinity Battery Technology to the project. The company's technology is designed to provide enhanced safety, thermal stability, and extended cycle life for mission-critical applications.

"This project represents an important step forward in demonstrating how advanced battery systems can support the rapidly growing energy demands of data centers and other critical infrastructure, while using domestic supply chains," said Dr. Raj DasGupta, CEO of Electrovaya.

The project includes a consortium of industry and research partners, including LiiON, Eaton Corporation, and the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The collaboration aims to leverage expertise across battery technology, power systems, and grid integration.

The battery system is designed as a replicable model for broader deployment across data centers and other high-demand applications. The project aligns with efforts to build resilient energy systems in the United States as electricity demand from artificial intelligence and digital infrastructure continues to grow.
