Chinese energy storage system company Hithium has officially opened its manufacturing facility in Mesquite, Texas. The site will create nearly 200 jobs.
The company first announced plans for the factory last year and invested $200 million into the 484,500-ft2 building. The site should begin mass production later this year with an annual capacity of 10 GWh for battery modules and systems.
“This facility embodies our dual focus: manufacturing excellence and customer-centric growth,” said Mizhi Zhang, Hithium president of global business. “By localizing education, production, and service networks, we’re not just expanding globally — we’re deepening our roots in the communities we serve. With global strategic supplier partnerships, we ensure coast-to-coast reliability, setting a new standard for the U.S. energy storage market.”
Hithium manufactures batteries for all markets, with a particular focus on the large-scale. At the end of 2024, the company premiered its new 6.25-MWh BESS to the market.
