CALIFORNIA-BASED energy storage system company Amber Kinetics announced plans to further expand its operations in the Philippines and the US following a visit of Philippine Ambassador to the US Jose Manuel Romualdez last month.
In a statement on Tuesday, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) said the visit to the company’s facility in Union City included a tour and a briefing that showcased the company’s innovative long-duration flywheel energy storage systems (FESS).
The DTI did not disclose details of the plan.
Amber Kinetics is the sole provider offering long-duration FESS that extends energy storage from minutes to hours.
This cutting-edge technology provides safe, sustainable, and reliable energy storage solutions for the modern grid.
“Amber Kinetics’ investment and innovation in energy storage are transforming the Philippines’ energy landscape, driving sustainability and supporting our transition to a greener future,” Romualdez said as he recognized Amber Kinetics’ pivotal role in building the country’s renewable energy sector.
Amber Kinetics manages a facility in Batangas for manufacturing, assembling, and testing flywheels. It also set up a demonstration site at De La Salle University in Sta. Rosa, Laguna, the world’s first flywheel innovation hub.
