![]() The firm builds its batteries using commodity materials on existing cell manufacturing lines-meaning that no new factories are required to manufacture their technology. Just like their energy storage technology, their production methods are cost-effective and sustainable. Natron’s batteries are 1973 recognized by UL (Underwriters Laboratories), the definitive third-party evaluation of energy storage safety, reliability and performance. Natron’s battery technology enables energy storage products that are both higher-powered and safer than traditional options-with none of the fire, explosive gas or thermal runaway risks associated with lithium or lead batteries. Recent National Fire Protection Association 855 fire codes in the US, imply that safe, sustainable battery technology is in particularly high demand among the growing data center market. Given the recent introduction of NFPA 855 fire codes and testing of battery systems for UL9540a, Natron’s combination of high power, safety and sustainability is more important than ever,” said Thomas Vogel, Vice President, ABB Technology Ventures. Its technology helps enable safe, smart and sustainable electrification, and we believe the company is well-positioned for growth within the already enormous data center infrastructure market. “Natron Energy is a great addition to the ABB Technology Ventures investment portfolio and for ABB’s business lines. ![]() The firms’ battery products address new “edge” and distributed computing infrastructure environments, hyperscale data centres, telecom, network and industrial applications-where customers and partners are integrating its technology into their critical infrastructure systems. “This funding round allows Natron to accelerate production to serve the increasing demand for safe, fire code compliant alternatives to both lithium and lead batteries.” “Our customers in the data centre and telecom markets value the safety, sustainability and performance of our sodium-ion batteries,” said Colin Wessells, Natron’s CEO and co-founder. ![]()
