How to Source Verified Lithium-Ion Batteries for B2B Use

Introduction

Sourcing lithium-ion batteries for B2B use shouldn’t be a black box. Yet for many OEMs, battery energy storage builders, and recyclers, the process is anything but streamlined.

Conversations spread across inboxes. Battery data is incomplete or outdated. Fulfillment sometimes starts before both sides agree on the details.

At Cling, we’ve seen these blockers firsthand—and we’re building systems to fix them.

Why Verified Battery Supply Matters

In B2B transactions, verification isn’t a nice-to-have—it’s essential.

You need confidence in:

  • Battery history – Where it’s from, how it’s been used
  • Chain of custody – Who handled it, and how
  • Technical data – Capacity, chemistry, health, and compliance
  • Counterparty reliability – Will they actually deliver what’s promised?

Without this transparency, every deal becomes a gamble.

The problem

Today, battery sourcing is often managed through scattered spreadsheets, emails, and side chats. That creates misalignment—especially across different time zones, departments, or organizations.

Key updates lose visibility. Critical terms go unconfirmed. Fulfillment moves faster than verification.

This doesn’t scale. Not for circularity. Not for trust. Not for the future of the battery economy.

A purpose-built platform

That's why we created the S1 Dealroom. A place that brings order, clarity, and trust to battery deals exists.

Not just a marketplace. A system supports verified supply, secure workflows, and shared understanding. With S1, buyers and sellers can align on every step of the transaction, in one place. That means faster cycle times, fewer surprises, and better outcomes.
