Stryten introduces lithium battery range

Alpharetta, GA, United States

US-based energy storage solutions provider, Stryten Energy has introduced the M-Series Li710, a new line of Class I and II lithium batteries in a range of voltages.

Stryten’s proprietary lithium module design utilises nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) chemistry, which has a greater energy density for longer run times and a faster charge rate than lead and lithium iron phosphate (LFP) chemistries.

According to the company, this means the batteries are ideal for operations and applications in which charging opportunities are limited.

Stryten will assemble the M-Series Li710 lithium batteries at its new lithium assembly plant in Cumming, Georgia.
