Fluence Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: FLNC), a prominent global provider of energy storage products, services, and optimization software for renewable energy and storage, has announced the launch of **Gridstack Pro**. This advanced energy storage solution is designed for the evolving landscape of utility-scale projects, offering an optimized design that assists customers in completing their projects more swiftly and generating revenue sooner.

“The industry must move faster to meet ambitious carbon reduction targets and accelerate the clean energy transition globally. Energy storage is critical to this transition, and Gridstack Pro, along with the comprehensive supply chain we’ve developed, is essential for providing our customers with the speed and agility they require,” stated Fluence President and CEO, **Julian Nebreda**.

According to the **BloombergNEF 2H 2023 Energy Storage Market Outlook**, annual front-of-the-meter additions are projected to reach approximately **158 GWh by 2030**. As we transition into this new phase of project scale and complexity, customers are increasingly in need of larger storage assets that can be deployed quickly and are straightforward to operate and maintain. Fluence boasts over **15 years of experience** in energy storage deployment, having initiated its first utility-scale project in **2008**. With more than **12 GWh of systems** contracted and operational globally, the Gridstack product line is relied upon by leading power generators for delivering safe systems and reliable grid services.

Gridstack Pro enhances the Fluence Product Catalog by addressing emerging customer needs in a rapidly expanding market. Tailored for the largest and most complex utility-scale projects worldwide, Gridstack Pro is equipped to manage advanced data acquisition and thermal management, offers comprehensive software control over all system architecture layers, and supports higher power inverters to boost density. Both Gridstack and Gridstack Pro are designed with safety as a top priority.

The **6th generation Gridstack systems** will continue to be available as an optimal solution for specific scenarios, featuring a range of batteries that include both **LFP** and **NMC** options, making them highly adaptable for project designs and better suited for smaller projects.

“Our extensive experience in deploying utility-scale storage systems globally has provided us with invaluable insights into product design. With this knowledge, we developed Gridstack Pro to scale in a market that is now deploying significantly larger systems,” said Fluence’s **Senior Vice President & Chief Product Officer, Rebecca Boll**. “From simplified installation and easier access to millions of system data points, to enhanced use of auxiliary power and more detailed control of battery strings, we have incorporated our lessons learned into product features. We have balanced system density and overall product performance while also carefully addressing supply chain and logistics challenges. Our commitment to safety in our product designs and across our business operations also helps streamline the permitting process for our customers. These advantages enable customers to maximize the value of their assets, ultimately completing projects faster and generating revenue sooner.”

Gridstack Pro offers enhanced performance and reduced operating costs through improved state-of-charge (SOC) accuracy, string-level control, and integrated asset performance management intelligence. The solution is optimized for various storage applications, available in both **2- and 4-hour system configurations**. It utilizes the **Fluence Battery Pack**, which combines state-of-the-art battery modules, cells, battery management systems, and monitoring equipment. In the U.S. market, the Fluence Battery Pack will feature U.S.-manufactured battery cells and modules, positioning Gridstack Pro as one of the first energy storage solutions eligible for the **10 percent Investment Tax Credit** domestic content bonus under the **IRA**.

Gridstack Pro allows Fluence to maximize its scale across the supply chain, better serving customers with a high degree of battery flexibility while ensuring consistent performance and full system-level safety. Gridstack Pro is now available for sale in global markets.
