ABOUT US · FOUNDED 2026

The Team Behind TeraStor

American designed energy storage company. Built by a team with grid-scale storage experience dating back to 2007.

WHO WE ARE

Building an American Energy Storage Company

TeraStor Energy is an American battery energy-storage company headquartered in Massachusetts.

The current company was formed in 2026 following the acquisition of energy-storage assets, technology and intellectual property developed over multiple generations.

Our team combines decades of energy-storage experience with new work in software, AI infrastructure and global manufacturing partnerships.

STRATEGY

What We Are Building

Our strategy is straightforward.

  • What we keep in-house

    We control the parts of the energy storage system where we believe the most value is created: system architecture, battery controls, energy management software and intellectual property.

  • Who we build with

    We work with qualified manufacturing and supply-chain partners around the world rather than trying to own every factory ourselves. This gives us flexibility to build around the requirements of each market and customer.

  • How our systems run

    StorOS provides the software layer for operating TeraStor systems and, over time, third-party energy assets.

  • Where we are heading

    We are also building Kinetra, our AI data centers operations platform, to connect energy infrastructure with the systems consuming it. The initial focus is AI infrastructure, where power, compute and facility operations are increasingly connected.

  • How we work with you

    On the commercial side, we work directly with customers to originate projects and solve real power problems. Where it helps a qualified project move forward, we can also work with project and capital partners.

Our goal is not simply to sell batteries. It is to build the hardware and software platform that helps customers deploy and manage energy infrastructure at scale.

TECHNOLOGY HERITAGE

Where Our Technology Comes From

TeraStor’s technology has roots that predate the current company.

Members of our engineering team and predecessor organizations participated in some of the industry’s early large-scale lithium-ion energy-storage deployments.

That experience now forms part of the technical foundation of TeraStor.

Legacy technology and team milestones

250 MW

Record-scale storage in California

A 250 MW system in Otay Mesa, California, and one of the most powerful battery storage projects in the world when it came online.

Full system

First full-system safety approval

The first lithium-ion energy storage system to be safety-approved as a complete system, not just component by component.

50 MWh

Europe's largest at the time

A 50 MWh system in Jardelund, Germany, and the largest battery storage project in Europe when it was built.

32 MW

World's largest lithium-ion system

A 32 MW system in West Virginia, and the largest lithium-ion battery installation in the world when it went into service.

Chile

First of its kind in Chile

A pioneering large-scale lithium-ion battery storage system, the first deployment of its kind.

Five

Generations of system design

Five generations of battery systems, from the first self-contained megawatt-scale unit to today's parallel-before-series architecture.

Highlights achieved by predecessor organizations and members of our team before TeraStor Energy Inc. was founded in 2026.
