Bren-Tronics, Inc. Awarded Contract From DIU to Deliver Military Battery Storage Needs at Commercial Scale

Long Island, New York-based Reliable Rechargeable Battery Maker Helps Accelerate DoD Adoption of Commercial Battery Technology

COMMACK, NY, US, December 8, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Today’s warfighters are increasingly reliant on mobile and portable digital technologies, requiring advanced battery technology. In early 2023, the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) released a Family of Advanced Standard Batteries (FastBat) solicitation on behalf of the Department of Defense (DoD) seeking “high-capacity, commercially-relevant, and rechargeable battery cells that meet the performance needs of a variety of military battery packs.” To prototype a solution around this problem, DIU issued an Other Transaction (OT) award to Long Island-based Bren-Tronics. The company will design, test and manufacture these military battery packs in its Commack, NY campus alongside its other military products it develops and manufactures.
