Statevolt Gigafactory in the evening

Statevolt’s vision is to be a leading player in the energy transition for a more sustainable future. Our mission is to ensure that American communities and workers reap the benefits of the clean energy economy by building battery Gigafactories in strategic U.S. locations and pioneering a hyperlocal model that prioritizes sustainability and a domestic supply chain.

Following the founding of our company in August 2021, Statevolt is engaged in building a technology-agnostic, battery cell production facility in California. Through various industry and community partnerships, we intend to implement a modular and scalable approach to battery cell production and build one of the largest Gigafactories in America, starting in California’s Imperial Valley.

Led by Lars Carlstrom, founder and CEO of Italvolt – the company bringing Italy its first Gigafactory – Statevolt’s project team brings deep industry experience and expertise to the project, as well as an eco-system of established project development partners, to America to help foster the acceleration of energy transition goals.

“The development of lithium-ion batteries is crucial for the U.S. to meet its goals to transition to Net Zero. We are proud to bring our expertise on the production of lithium-ion batteries, as we look to serve this critical market.”

At our core, Statevolt is driven by the mission to keep the production of batteries for EVs, ESS, industrial machinery, and other clean energy solutions in the U.S. Our approach to scalable Gigafactory design is positioned to create thousands of jobs for the American people across the country. The hyperlocal business model we plan to implement to our giga facility, from development to continuous production, is aligned with U.S. goals to reduce reliance on foreign sources, boost economic competitiveness, and expand American manufacturing.

“The current battery supply chain is is ineffienct, unsustainable, and vulnerable to disruption. We are pioneering a new, hyperlocal business model, which prioritizes sustainability and resilience in the supply chain to solve this problem. More importantly, we believe this model will offer Statevolt a significant advantage in producing lithium-ion batteries at scale to meet booming consumer demand and create well-paying, highly skilled jobs.”
