Halia Power

Halia Power is a Houston, Texas-based startup operating in the grid-scale battery storage recycling sector. The company's core mission is to recycle and recover value from utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) - a critical and rapidly growing challenge as the first generation of large-format grid batteries deployed in the 2010s reaches end-of-life. As renewables penetration accelerates and grid-scale storage deployments balloon into the hundreds of gigawatt-hours annually, the safe, economical, and sustainable decommissioning of these systems has become a pressing infrastructure and environmental problem that Halia Power is positioning itself to solve.

Grid battery recycling sits at a crucial intersection of the clean energy transition and domestic supply chain security. Used lithium-ion batteries from utility-scale installations contain significant quantities of lithium, cobalt, nickel, manganese, and other critical minerals that, if properly recovered, can be reintroduced into new cell manufacturing - reducing dependence on foreign mining and raw material imports. Halia Power's approach to this lifecycle challenge - based in Houston, a city with deep industrial and energy logistics infrastructure - places it well to serve the growing wave of BESS operators, utilities, and independent power producers across the US looking for compliant, cost-effective end-of-life battery management solutions.

Halia Power represents an emerging class of "circularity" companies in the US energy supply chain that are tackling the downstream consequences of the clean energy build-out. With federal policy tailwinds including the Inflation Reduction Act's domestic content incentives and growing EPA scrutiny of improper battery disposal, companies like Halia Power are increasingly relevant to utilities, project developers, and battery OEMs seeking responsible and economically viable decommissioning pathways. The company's Houston location also provides strategic access to the Gulf Coast's extensive industrial logistics network, making it well-suited for national-scale battery collection and processing operations.
