Octillion Power Systems Establishes Reno, Nevada, Battery Manufacturing Operations

02/05/2025
Octillion Power Systems, a supplier of advanced high-density lithium-ion battery packs for a range of passenger and commercial fleet electric vehicles, has established operations in Reno, Nevada. The project is expected to create up to 50 jobs.

The approximately 40,000-square-foot battery system manufacturing facility will have a forecasted total production capacity of 1GWh.

"Opening the Nevada One facility is a key step in our North American expansion strategy," said Paul Beach, Global President. "Our growing manufacturing footprint in North America is commensurate with increasing battery system demand from major clients across various E-mobility end markets. 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. Nevada provides an incredibly supportive clean tech business climate. Octillion is intent on doing everything possible to help reduce U.S. greenhouse gas emissions by providing domestic electric vehicle manufacturers with exceptional battery systems capable of meeting demand for large-scale passenger and commercial fleet lines.”

Octillion is a Tier 1 supplier of high-density lithium-ion battery systems and related technology focused on the electrification of major industries such as: Automotive, Off-Highway, Construction, Agriculture, Marine, and ESS. The company currently operates seven manufacturing sites globally.

"The arrival of Octillion in Western Nevada is a major boon for our state's electrification industry," noted Taylor Adams, CEO of the Economic Development Authority of Western Nevada (EDAWN). "Octillion's reputation as a global-leading tier-1 supplier of batteries for the electric vehicle industry is a clear signal that Nevada is on the right track for leading in automotive energy storage."
