to enhance supply chain transparency in energy storage.
Acculon Energy, a manufacturer of advanced battery systems, announced a strategic agreement with Circulor, a supply chain traceability provider, and Rockwell Automation, Inc., a company focused on industrial automation and digital transformation, to deliver next-generation battery energy storage solutions. This collaboration supports Acculon’s focus on responsible sourcing and sustainability, using Circulor’s traceability and digital battery passport solutions along with Rockwell’s manufacturing expertise to help meet current and upcoming regulatory standards.
As demand for next-generation energy storage increases to provide reliable and clean power, transparency and responsible management become essential. The EU Battery Regulation’s due diligence and digital battery passport requirements, effective by February 2027, emphasize supply chain traceability and require companies to prioritize and demonstrate responsible sourcing of critical minerals. This product transparency is also necessary to qualify for market incentives and comply with growing import and trade restrictions.
In response, this strategic agreement enables a data trail for the origin of key materials such as sodium, lithium, copper, nickel, and graphite, as well as the embedded carbon emissions, from raw material source to final battery manufacturing at Acculon’s Ohio facility. Together, they will also implement battery passports for a range of commercial and industrial applications for their customers, providing unprecedented levels of transparency and enabling them to meet upcoming compliance obligations.
By incorporating traceability from cell selection through production, the collaboration proves Acculon’s commitment to responsible development and manufacturing, scaling the partnership as Acculon scales output.
Acculon, Circulor, and Rockwell combine expertise to support energy storage customers in managing secure, resilient, and responsible supply chains. This partnership aims to improve supply chain integrity, product transparency, and compliance in battery energy storage.
