Capacity Range: 1Ah to 9 MWh
Custom BMS Integration: Tailored battery management systems for every application
Our advanced lines are designed to support a wide array of markets, including defense, AI data centers, renewable energy, and electric vehicles. We are proud to serve both government and commercial clients, with a proven track record of reliability and innovation.
Reshoring American Jobs and Manufacturing
Our expansion is about more than technology—it’s about bringing manufacturing back to the United States. By relocating production from overseas and investing in American talent, we are helping to secure the nation’s energy future, reduce supply chain risk, and create high-quality jobs in Tampa Bay. This move is supported by government incentives and reflects a growing national commitment to domestic battery manufacturing, as seen in recent federal initiatives and investments.
“When we started looking at the whole equation, we estimated around 20 percent cost savings by not having the battery packs manufactured overseas,” said Nathan Staron, CEO. “There is a lot of energy to make this happen here, so we are very excited about it… It does feel good to bring back manufacturing jobs, but the next challenge is going to be able to find the people to be able to run the equipment and teach them and train them.”
A Commitment to Sustainability and Community
Our mission is to accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy through innovative battery solutions, while upholding the highest standards of quality, safety, and environmental responsibility. We are excited to collaborate with local partners, universities, and the Tampa Bay Economic Development Council to foster talent and drive innovation in the region.
Join Us in Powering America’s Future
Lithium Battery Company’s new South Tampa facility is more than an investment in technology—it’s an investment in people, community, and the future of American manufacturing. We invite you to follow our journey as we continue to push the boundaries of energy storage and help make “Made in America” the standard in battery technology once again.
