Adena Power joins Halliburton Labs to advance energy storage technology

(WO) — Halliburton Labs welcomes Adena Power, the newest company to join its collaborative environment for energy and climate ventures.

Adena Power develops energy storage solutions for behind-the-meter commercial, industrial, and utility markets that use U.S. raw materials and manufacturing. Their innovative sodium battery technology targets unmet needs in these markets for lower installed cost, flexible duration, and safety relative to lithium-ion options.

"There is a 100 terawatt-hours (TWh) opportunity for energy storage in the U.S. grid," said Nathan Cooley, co-founder and CEO of Adena Power. "With Halliburton Labs’ support and operational expertise, Adena Power looks to accelerate scaling and take advantage of the high-growth market opportunity."

The announcement builds on an exciting year for Adena as the People’s Choice Award winner at the National Renewable Energy Labs Industry Growth Forum. They were also awarded the MAKE IT Prize (Manufacture of Advanced Key Energy Infrastructure Technologies) by the U.S. Department of Energy - an award aimed at the promotion of domestic manufacturing of critical energy technology components.

“We are pleased to welcome Adena Power to Halliburton Labs,” said Dale Winger, managing director of Halliburton Labs. “Our team is ready to collaborate with Adena to help them accelerate their growth to meet the demand for behind-the-meter storage solutions.”

Halliburton Labs harnesses Halliburton’s industrial experience, skilled workforce, and global business network to assist early-stage energy tech ventures to optimize their time and resources as they scale their business.
