Octillion Power Systems, which supplies high-density lithium-ion battery packs for passenger and commercial fleet EVs, has inaugurated a new battery system manufacturing facility in Reno, Nevada.

The approximately 40,000-square-foot facility will supply the North American EV, off-highway, commercial equipment, marine and grid storage markets. By 2025, the plant’s production lines have a forecasted total capacity of 1 GWh, which will add to Octillion’s estimated 25 GWh of total annual production across its seven other global manufacturing facilities.

“Our growing manufacturing footprint in North America is commensurate with increasing battery system demand from major clients across various e-mobility end markets,” said Paul Beach, Octillion’s Global President. “This new Reno facility will allow us to satisfy certain demand, while also providing a working model for clients looking to advance their own co-located factories with Octillion in North America.”
