Hithium battery storage system powered by Turbo Energy's AI-driven optimization platform
VALENCIA, Spain, April 20, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Turbo Energy, S.A. (NASDAQ:TURB) ("Turbo Energy" or the "Company"), a global integrator of AI-driven solar energy storage solutions and intelligent energy management systems, today announced strategic partnership with Hithium, a tier 1 global battery storage provider, to integrate its AI-driven optimization platform into Hithium's battery systems. The collaboration enables the deployment of intelligent, software-defined energy storage infrastructure across commercial and industrial ("C&I") applications in Europe and Latin America.
Under the agreement, Turbo Energy will integrate its proprietary AI-driven software platform with Hithium's battery storage systems, delivering fully optimized, end-to-end solar energy solutions tailored to complex C&I environments. Turbo Energy's software transforms battery systems into adaptive, optimized energy assets capable of improving efficiency, reducing exposure to energy price volatility and enhancing operational resilience.
This strategic partnership builds on Turbo Energy's growing portfolio of large-scale industrial deployments, a recently secured $53 million contract to deploy approximately 366 MWh of solar energy storage capacity across more than ten industrial facilities in Spain for a major industrial group, where Turbo Energy delivers turnkey integration of solar generation, battery storage and AI-driven energy management solutions.
The agreement is expected to support multi-market deployment across Europe and Latin America, leveraging Hithium's global scale while accelerating Turbo Energy's expansion in high-growth C&I segments. As a result, Turbo Energy anticipates continued expansion of its international project pipeline, with increasing contribution from higher-margin, software-driven and integrated energy management services.
"Energy storage is no longer defined by hardware alone — it is defined by how intelligently that infrastructure operates," said Mariano Soria, Chief Executive Officer of Turbo Energy. "Our AI-driven platform enables battery systems to function as dynamic, optimized energy assets, and we are increasingly seeing global leaders integrate intelligence as a core layer of next-generation solar energy systems."
"By combining Hithium's global scale in battery storage with our optimization and integration capabilities, we are driving a new generation of software-defined energy infrastructure designed to deliver measurable economic value for industrial and commercial customers," Soria added.
Partnering with Turbo Energy marks an important step in advancing the role of intelligent energy storage in global energy markets," said Kelson Li, Vice President of Hithium Europe. "As a top two global provider of energy storage batteries and utility-scale battery shipments in 2025, Hithium is uniquely positioned to scale next-generation solutions. This collaboration enables us to combine our advanced battery technologies with AI-driven optimization to deliver high-impact, software-defined systems that unlock greater economic value for customers and accelerate the transition toward more flexible, decentralized energy infrastructure.
As energy systems continue to evolve toward greater complexity and decentralization, Turbo Energy remains focused on expanding its international footprint through strategic partnerships and scalable deployments. Turbo Energy is positioning its technology integration capabilities and proprietary software development to play a central role in the next phase of the energy transition, where performance, flexibility and economic optimization will define competitive advantage.
