Electrovaya BESS can discharge full capacity in 30 minutes, perfect for data centers

Lithium battery company Electrovaya has launched a new battery energy storage platform, the ElvaPulse 1500. Ideally designed for the AI and data center market, the system could also be used as stationary energy storage.

ElvaPulse 1500 is the first product introduced under Electrovaya’s new ElvaPulse stationary energy storage portfolio. This product leverages the proprietary ceramic separator design underpinning Electrovaya’s Infinity Battery Technology (NMC chemistry), which has been validated across more than 30,000 battery systems operating in demanding industrial environments. The family is being developed for demanding applications where enhanced safety, rapid power delivery, frequent cycling and long operating life are essential, including AI and data center infrastructure, resilient microgrids, industrial power management, critical backup power, peak-demand management and renewable-energy firming.

Built around a modular 20-ft container and a 1,500-V architecture, ElvaPulse 1500 provides up to 2.88 MWh of nominal energy capacity and can be configured to deliver up to approximately 7 MW of continuous power. This power-to-energy ratio allows ElvaPulse 1500 to discharge its full rated capacity in under 30 minutes — well above the roughly two- to four-hour duration profile of most utility-scale lithium-ion BESS platforms.

“Data centers and other mission-critical facilities are pushing the energy storage industry toward higher and higher power delivery, and ElvaPulse 1500 was purpose-built to meet that need,” said Raj DasGupta, CEO of Electrovaya. “We designed this platform to give customers the flexibility to configure power, runtime and footprint around their specific requirements.”

Electrovaya has initiated certification activities for ElvaPulse 1500 under UL 1973 and UL 9540, with completion currently targeted for the first quarter of 2027. The company is accepting production reservations now, with initial deliveries targeted to begin in the second quarter of 2027 from its Jamestown, New York, manufacturing facility.

A Canadian company, Electrovaya began manufacturing battery cells and modules in New York in 2025.
