Pack Builders: Secure battery overstock today

Introdyction

EV battery production has recently outpaced demand, leaving large volumes of high-quality lithium-ion batteries warehoused and idle. For pack builders, this creates a rare opportunity: tier-1 automotive-grade supply is now available outside the traditional supply chain.

That's why we are introducing S1, the first portal that gives pack builders direct access to this overstock—no middle layers, no unnecessary friction. Here’s how:

160 MWh (and counting) ready for pickup

More than 160 MWh from renowned battery players have been listed in just a few weeks and one of the most exciting aspects of this overstock supply is the quality: unused lithium-ion cells and modules from tier1 producers that were never deployed. The available inventory includes various formats and chemistries:

  • Cells: cylindrical, prismatic, pouch with mostly NMC and LFP.
  • Modules: originally built for EVs (OEM overstock) and ESS with mostly NMC and LFP.
  • Packs: automotive and ESS with mostly NMC and LFP.

Whether you're building grid-scale systems or e-mobility packs, this inventory lets you expand your capacity without compromising on quality. As one North American pack builder put it:

"You are aggregating supply demand for something that is otherwise super high friction and it’s usually very hard to get price discovery or volume discovery. This saves us a tremendous amount of time."

S1 Cuts the Complexity

Sourcing batteries traditionally meant juggling specifications, volume, pricing, logistics, regulations, and timing across endless email and Whatsapp chains. S1 collapses that workflow into one Deal Room:

  1. Verified network – every buyer and seller is pre-qualified.
  2. Live inventory & pricing – see stock, specs, and negotiate in-platform.
  3. Standard terms & Built-in logistics – move fast and safely.

Result: days, not months from “need batteries” to “batteries shipped.”
