This global alliance brings together two fast-growing innovators in the power sector, united by a mission to enable power abundance — delivering the cost-effective and reliable clean electricity needed to fuel industrial growth, digital transformation and long-term economic prosperity. The partnership marks the formation of a powerful industrial alliance, aligning complementary strengths to unlock commercial and technological synergies — including supply chain efficiency, advanced system integration and accelerated execution for utility-scale projects. At a time when U.S. transformer wait times have stretched from 50 weeks to as long as 127 weeks, this collaboration directly addresses supply shortages by leveraging Astor Enerji's manufacturing capacity and global supply chain to ensure access to high-quality equipment from sources outside areas of U.S. concern.
Under the agreement:
By combining Energy Vault’s portfolio of advanced long- and short-duration energy storage hardware solutions and AI-driven software platform with Astor Enerji’s manufacturing scale and global delivery track record, the partnership unlocks operational efficiency, speeds time-to-market and strengthens grid infrastructure in high-growth regions.
“This partnership is about more than equipment supply — it’s about aligning two high-growth companies to solve the most pressing challenges in the energy transition,” said Marco Terruzzin, Chief Revenue Officer, Energy Vault. “Together, we are building the technology and supply chain capacity to meet surging power demand from AI data centers and the rapid adoption of renewable energy. This is how we deliver power abundance and economic growth on a global scale.”
“Energy Vault’s innovative approach to energy storage, combined with their extensive global project pipeline, makes them an ideal partner as we expand our footprint in the rapidly growing battery storage sector,” said Olcay Doğan, Chief Financial Officer, Astor Enerji. “This agreement builds on our mission to deliver the grid infrastructure needed for a sustainable energy future, and we are excited to create lasting commercial and technological value together.”
