KULR gets U.S. Army approval for $2.4m expanded battery contract
Sustainable energy management company KURL has secured an expanded $2.4m contract to make batteries for the United States Army.
The company in a September 25 announcement said the expanded contract will include the development of additional prototypes and comprehensive environmental qualification testing in accordance with MIL-STD-810E standards.
Rewarding performance
KURL said it was on course to complete its initial agreement with the U.S. Army by Q3 2024 before it secured the contract expansion. The company says the expansion came as a result of its performance in the first contract, which is almost finished.
It considers the expansion as a proof of its commitment to manufacturing high-performing silicon anode lithium-ion battery cells that are reliable under the most demanding conditions.
As part of the expanded contract, KURL will subject the prototypes to rigorous testing to ensure that the batteries remain safe and reliable in military field conditions despite increased energy density.
“This expanded contract is a crucial step in our collaboration with the U.S. Army,” CEO of KULR Technology Group, Michael Mo commented.“By pushing the boundaries of energy density while maintaining the highest safety and reliability standards, we are laying the foundation for future adoption across the Army’s technological infrastructure. Our focus remains on delivering innovative solutions that meet the operational demands of our armed forces in the harshest environments.”
A step towards KURL ONE
Another critical benefit of this expanded contract to KURL is the enhancement of KURL ONE platform project. This is a way to expand the deployment of the company’s technological innovation to cater to sustainable energy needs.
With the support from the U.S. Army, the company is positive that KURL ONE will see a potential increase in product sales in 2025 as it continues to deliver technologically advanced and cost-effective solutions to its partners.
