As a cutting-edge energy storage solutions company, Oakridge
Global Energy Solutions is engaged in the design, development and manufacture
of high-quality cells, batteries and power systems. It may not sound exciting
or “sexy,” but if there’s any reason to get excited about battery technologies,
it’s what Oakridge is doing to stir up the market.
For starters, Oakridge’s product line is “Made in the USA” –
a federally regulated claim that boasts of patriotism and the creation of
domestic jobs. In October, Oakridge announced that the ongoing expansion of its
facilities and operations would create 1,000 new jobs in the company’s home
state of Florida.
Part of this three-year growth plan included a recent
upgrade from the company’s 12,500-square-foot facility to a 68,718-square-foot
corporate headquarters and manufacturing center in Palm Bay. Florida Governor
Rick Scott, along with several local dignitaries and business entrepreneurs,
celebrated the company’s progress with a major press conference at the new headquarters
and acknowledged its impact on the local community with the “Governor’s
Business Ambassador” medal.
If that doesn’t heat up your pipes, consider that Oakridge’s
solutions are optimized to address three high-demand target markets: stationary
and grid storage; motive applications, such as electric and hybrid electric
fleet vehicles; and specialty applications, such as military, aerospace,
marine, medical and telecom backup.
From golf carts, drones and medical uses to underwater and
space applications for the consumer, government, industrial and military
industries, Oakridge’s products cover the gamut of power solutions:
• Patriot
Series – this small format lithium ion battery was designed with RC hobbyists
and portable medical devices in mind. This series will provide on-the-go users
with a more powerful, longer lasting charge in a more convenient size for
travel and storage.
• Pro Series
– Oakridge’s lithium ion golf cart battery systems are among the best in the
industry – long-lasting and good for over 2,000 cycles, these high energy, high
performance batteries will travel up to 60 miles on a single charge and feature
smart charging technology and management interface tools.
• Liberty
Series – batteries designed for everyday use in vehicles, motorcycles, cars,
trucks, boats, jet skis, snowmobiles and more.
• The Freedom
Series of Living Space Power Storage Units – powered by hi-tech lithium-ion
batteries, this is one Oakridge’s the newest lines currently the product
pipeline and undergoing review for commercial production.
Oakridge also maintains an international presence through
its recently formed subsidiary, Oakridge Global Energy Solutions Limited, Hong
Kong. This subsidiary will serve as the foundation for Oakridge’s sales efforts
throughout the Asia-Pacific region, addressing tremendous international demand
for its revolutionary stored energy solutions. The company also maintains a
substantial interest in Leclanche S.A., a Swiss developer and manufacturer of
large-sized lithium-ion batteries that was originally founded in 1909.
Leaning on the expertise of its proven management team –
which includes more than 100 years of combined industry experience – Oakridge
is heating up the lithium-battery market with its technologies, and plans to take
its share of the $12 billion domestic battery manufacturing industry while
extending its market reach in the global lithium-ion batteries market, which is
expected to tip the scales at $70 billion by 2020.
