Hithium’s AI Data Center Energy Storage Launch at RE+ 2025: What It Means for Investors
Las Vegas, NV – September 2025 — At RE+ 2025, Hithium unveiled its AI Data Center Energy Storage Solution (ESS)—a portfolio aimed at powering hyperscale computing growth while advancing the clean-energy transition. The headline: reliable, cost-efficient, long-duration storage paired with fast-response capability to keep AI workloads humming.
Why AI Data Centers Need Long-Duration Storage
Hyperscalers like Amazon (AMZN), Microsoft (MSFT), and Alphabet (GOOGL) are racing to add capacity—but power is quickly becoming the defining constraint.
- Unstable loads: AI compute can fluctuate at millisecond speed, stressing power quality.
- Sustainability goals: Operators need to cut emissions and costs via higher renewable penetration.
- Storage gap: Traditional short-duration approaches aren’t optimized for round-the-clock AI intensity.
Inside Hithium’s ESS Portfolio
- ∞Power 6.25MWh (8-hour lithium BESS): Long-duration backbone that soaks up renewables and delivers steady output over an entire workday.
- ∞Power N2.28MWh (1-hour sodium-ion BESS): Built to absorb sudden power surges from spiky AI workloads.
Together, they form a base-plus-surge design that can lower LCOE and increase renewable utilization. A dedicated lifespan/health model provides predictive insights into degradation under AI-heavy duty cycles—vital for billion-dollar campuses.
U.S. Manufacturing & Local Support
Hithium backs the launch with a U.S. footprint (Texas manufacturing capacity, engineering network, rapid on-site response). A “Local for Local” approach and vertical integration aim to speed deployments and improve lifecycle reliability for North American operators.
Investor Takeaways: Public Market Opportunities
Hithium is privately held, but the theme benefits a broader set of public companies across energy storage and digital infrastructure:
