February 16, 2026 — A123 Systems LLC (A123), a global leader in research and manufacturing with advanced lithium-ion battery technologies, today announced a strategic partnership with Sunhub at Intersolar North America 2026 booth 3023. The partnership brings together A123’s deep expertise in battery cell chemistry and longitudinal safe system roadmap with Sunhub’s nationwide solar and energy storage distribution platform, creating a streamlined path for integrators and developers to deploy reliable, bankable storage solutions at scale.

At the event, A123 and Sunhub are jointly exhibiting to demonstrate how advanced battery technology, system-level design, and distribution alignment can reduce project risk, accelerate deployment timelines, and improve long-term asset performance across residential, commercial, and utility-scale applications.

Showcasing AENERGY™ 850 and Integrated Storage Solutions

A key highlight of the partnership is the live display of AENERGY™ 850, A123’s next-generation BESS to scale safety, high performance, and lifecycle reliability. Built on A123’s proven Lithium-Iron phosphate (LFP) cell technology, the AENERGY™ 850 is designed to support demanding areas and applications where uptime, thermal stability, and long-term durability are critical.

Through Sunhub’s platform, customers gain simplified access to A123’s energy storage solutions, backed by technical support, logistics coordination, and a distribution model tailored to the evolving needs of the North American energy market.

Extending Beyond ESS: Automotive Battery Expertise

In addition to energy storage systems, A123 is also highlighting its automotive market leadership and high-power LV battery portfolio at Intersolar North America. With extensive experience supplying batteries for automotive, commercial, and specialty vehicle applications, A123 continues to apply automotive-grade standards, safety validation, and manufacturing rigor to both mobility and stationary energy storage markets.

“This partnership with Sunhub strengthens our go-to-market strategy by aligning advanced battery technology with a distribution platform that understands how projects are built and financed across North America. By combining our A123’s engineering depth and safety-first system architecture with Sunhub’s installer and developer network, we are reducing procurement friction, accelerating deployment timelines, and increasing confidence in long-term asset performance. Together, we’re making high-quality, bankable energy storage more accessible at scale”,

said Manuel Spitzlay, Senior Director of Sales, A123 Systems LLC.

Strengthening the Storage Ecosystem
