American Battery Solutions, Inc. has formally re-launched its upgraded 170,000 square-foot manufacturing facility, with critical added production capacity to meet the growing demand for lithium-ion batteries used in light electric vehicles and numerous industrial and recreational applications.
The Springboro, Ohio facility, purchased from Robert Bosch Battery Systems in 2019, includes additional investment in equipment and facility improvements conducted in parallel with developments in new product offerings and new customer programs, steps that enabled production start-up in January this year of the Alliance Intelligent Battery Series.
ABS says its investment in the Springboro facility is driven by growing customer adoption of its recently-launched Alliance Intelligent Battery Series for light commercial and heavy-duty electric vehicle markets. At capacity, the facility will be capable of producing 8 Gwh of power annually the equivalent of powering more than 150,000 electric vehicles.
