The U.S. energy storage market has been developing rapidly in recent years. Driven by the expansion of renewable energy, advancement of lithium technology, policy support and growing market demand, the U.S. has become one of the most dynamic energy storage markets in the world. REPT BATTERO focuses on providing safe and efficient energy storage solutions using innovative technology, world-class products and impeccable service. In the first half of this year, REPT BATTERO and POWIN, an energy storage manufacturer, signed a framework agreement for cooperation on 12GWh of energy storage batteries. Last year, REPT BATTERO also entered into a strategic partnership with Energy Vault, a U.S. energy storage technology developer, and signed a supply agreement for a 10GWh liquid-cooled energy storage battery system.
According to InfoLink Consulting’s public data, REPT BATTERO ranked third in the world in terms of global shipments of energy storage cells, and ranked second in the world in terms of shipments of household storage cells. The establishment of REPT BATTERO’s North American subsidiary in Irvine is an important milestone in expanding its investment in the region. With this strategic location, REPT BATTERO will be able to capitalize on the advantages of Irvine’s talent pool and business-friendly environment. By grasping the good development momentum of the U.S. energy storage market, REPT BATTERO will also work together with its partners to provide its customers with better technology, better products and better services.
