A123 is set to officially unveil its first full range of semi-solid immersion energy storage products during a launch event on January 23, 2026, at 19:00. The event, themed “Wisdom Gathering in the Starry Sky, Intelligent Storage for the Future“, will mark the global debut of energy storage solutions based on semi-solid immersion technology.
At the event, A123 will introduce the “Star” series of semi-solid battery cells and the “Galaxy” series of four customized energy storage systems designed for critical fields such as data centers, harsh outdoor environments, and offshore deep-sea applications. These products aim to fundamentally eliminate the risk of thermal runaway, providing an energy infrastructure characterized by inherent safety.
The Star Series Semi-Solid Battery Cells: Dual Protection for Inherent Safety
This technology matrix addresses the challenge of balancing safety and longevity in traditional energy storage systems. By integrating the Star series semi-solid battery cells with immersion cooling technology, A123 aims to redefine industry perceptions regarding thermal runaway. The solution seeks to alleviate users’ fundamental fears of battery fires, demonstrated through its performance in extreme puncture tests. Additionally, with groundbreaking thermal control designs, the Star series battery cells will push the limits of lifespan in high-temperature environments, offering a more cost-effective choice throughout the entire lifecycle.
The Galaxy Series Energy Storage Matrix: Comprehensive Solutions for Core to Offshore Applications
This launch will feature customized products from the Galaxy series tailored for various application scenarios, significantly enhancing the adaptability of energy systems. In the data center sector, the new HVDC energy storage solution aims to replace traditional UPS systems through a high-voltage direct current framework, thus innovating and improving power architecture efficiency. For outdoor and offshore applications, A123 will introduce the Galaxy series outdoor cabinets and 5-foot/20-foot container storage solutions. Specifically designed for islands and oil fields, these modular products will address transportation and installation challenges in deep-sea scenarios, ensuring stable operation in harsh conditions.
Smart Operation and Maintenance Platform: Multi-Dimensional Sensor Integration and Proactive Upgrades
In addition to the innovations in the Star and Galaxy hardware series, A123 will unveil a new smart operation and maintenance system. This system aims to tackle the delayed warning issues of traditional battery management systems (BMS) by incorporating advanced sensor technology and AI algorithms. The goal is to extend the safety management window significantly, providing reliable technical support for the “unmanned” operation model of energy storage stations.
A123 emphasizes that the comprehensive solutions presented in the Star and Galaxy series are designed to directly confront key challenges in the industry, such as frequent accidents and environmental constraints. This shift in energy storage technology aims to evolve from merely stacking performance metrics to achieving a dimension of extreme safety. The upcoming launch event will closely align with the theme “Wisdom Gathering in the Starry Sky, Intelligent Storage for the Future“, showcasing A123’s latest achievements in reshaping the industry’s safety baseline and providing a more resilient energy source for the infrastructure needed for a zero-carbon future.
