Etica Battery announced it has received the UL 1973 Certificate of Compliance from CSA Group for its ECO-06 Series lithium-ion battery racks. Etica’s batteries are the first to use immersion-cooled technology and receive the UL certification.
“Achieving UL 1973 is proof that our immersion-cooled systems are setting a new bar for safety and performance,” said Jaime Hidalgo, CEO and co-founder of EticaAG. “This recognition validates the work of our teams across the U.S. and Taiwan and positions us to move forward with UL 9540A, the next critical step for fire-safety validation.”
Immersion cooling (Etica Battery’s LiquidShield) submerges cells in a non-flammable, dielectric fluid, eliminating ignition sources, maintaining uniform cell temperatures and actively preventing fire propagation.
“Thermal control is central to both safety and financial performance,” said Matthew Ward, president of EticaAG. “Immersion cooling doesn’t just prevent fires, it keeps batteries operating within their design parameters, extending life and improving the economics of storage.”
