Defense
Reliable Power is Mission Critical
The Problems We Help You Solve
Operational Resilience is Hard for Batteries
Mission readiness requires reliable performance in extreme climates with no heat signature.
Safety Considerations are a Nuisance
Lithium-ion fire and toxicity risks strictly limit positioning of energy storage relative to personnel or critical infrastructure.
Threats from Vulnerable Supply Chain
Reliance on Foreign Entities of Concern (FEOC) creates strategic weaknesses and undermines mission assurance.
Risk of Cyber Threats
Connected battery systems from foreign suppliers create potential backdoors, leaving secure defense networks vulnerable.
Alsym Na-Series Benefits
Provide the reliability and robustness needed for our nation’s defense
Alsym’s Na-Series sodium-ion batteries help OEMs/Integrators provide better energy storage solutions for Defense.
Extreme Environment Stability
Na-Series batteries operate safely in extreme heat or cold (-40°C to 60°C) without thermal derating or a heat signature.
Tactical Siting Flexibility
Non-flammable, non-toxic chemistry allows indoor siting and tight formations without the need for setbacks.
Domestic Security
U.S.-made using non-conflict materials eliminates exposure to foreign adversaries and ensures a secure supply chain.
Cybersecure Architecture
Domestic manufacturing and a transparent architecture free from foreign influence ensure security against bad actors.
Typical Use Cases for Defense
Forward Deployed Power
Reliable power for microgrids without the need for dangerous fuel supply convoys
Critical Infrastructure Backup
Secure, non-flammable energy storage ensures continuity for command centers and essential military bases.
Safe Storage and Rapid Deployment
Transport safely at 0% state of charge and deploy immediately without complex high-voltage commissioning.
FAQ
What makes Alsym batteries ideal for forward-deployed military bases?
The non-flammable and non-toxic NFPP+ chemistry offer extreme environment stability. Alsym's non-flammable nature and lack of significant heat signature enhance tactical security, while the ability to ship at 0% State of Charge (SOC) simplifies logistics for rapid deployment.
What is the operational performance if the Na-series in extreme climates?
The Na-series is engineered for extreme environment stability, maintaining high performance across a wide temperature range of -40C to 60C. Lithium-ion batteries often require heavy, power-hungry HVAC systems to prevent failure in arctic or desert conditions. Alsym's chemistry is thermally robust systems without added weights and complexity of active thermal management.
Are Alsym batteries suitable for long-duration storage at remote bases?
Yes. Alsym batteries are optimized for flexible-duration energy storage (30 minutes to 110+ hours), making them ideal for remote bases. With a life cycle exceeding 10,000 cycles, Alsym provides a "set-and-forget" power asset that ensures long-term operational resilience for isolated outposts and critical infrstructure.
A Better Solution for our Energy Future
Alsym’s Na-Series battery platform is designed to go where lithium-ion can’t—safely, affordably, and at scale. From city rooftops to off-grid communities, we’re building storage that fits the future.
