Dallas-based Solidion Technology (Nasdaq: STI), a battery materials and components manufacturer that reports having a portfolio of over 525 patents, has announced its development of a next-generation Uninterruptible Power Supply system designed for the AI data center market.

Solidion said its new PEAK Series (short for Power, Energy, Anode, Knowledge) incorporates the company’s award-winning 5500 battery cell, which leverages its proprietary silicon-carbon anode technology to deliver “superior energy density, reliability, and cost efficiency.”

“AI data centers are among the most demanding and fastest-growing segments in the global power infrastructure market,” CEO Jaymes Winters said in a statement. “Our PEAK Series directly addresses the industry’s need for compact, efficient, and sustainable backup power solutions, enabling customers to support the exponential power demands of AI workloads.”

Benefits of the new system, per Solidion, include:

:: Up to 30% space reduction, with a compact design optimizing valuable data center floor space while cutting system weight.

:: A lower total cost of ownership, since reduced maintenance requirements and streamlined assembly lower lifecycle operating expenses.

:: Extended battery life, with the 5500 cell lasting up to three times longer than conventional backup power systems.

:: A simplified battery rack, pack, and harness configurations delivering “program-level cost savings.”

Eyeing commercial PEAK launch in Q1 2026

Solidion said it expects the the PEAK Series to become commercially available in the first quarter of 2026. The company is currently engaging with “select data center partners” for early integration and testing.

The company has pilot production facilities in Dayton, Ohio. The company began trading on the Nasdaq in February 2024 as the merged entity between Dayton, Ohio-based Honeycomb Battery Co. and Dallas-based Nubia Brand International Co., a special purpose acquisition company. That same month, Dallas Innovates wrote about how the company was exploring silicon oxide and silicon as a way to improve the energy density of EV batteries and extend EV range by 20% to 40%.

Solidion says its patents cover innovations including high-capacity, non-silane gas and graphene-enabled silicon anodes, biomass-based graphite, advanced lithium-sulfur, and lithium-metal technologies.
