Attributes 571% Revenue Growth to its Groundbreaking Failsafe Battery Technology and its Commitment to Providing Innovative Energy Solutions
BUFFALO, N.Y., Nov. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Viridi Parente (Viridi), a leader in developing fail-safe battery energy storage systems that provide on-demand and resilient power for use in industrial, medical, commercial, municipal, and residential building applications, today announced its inclusion in the Deloitte Technology Fast 500™, a ranking of the 500 fastest-growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences, fintech, and energy tech companies in North America, now in its 30th year.
Viridi’s CEO, Jon M. Williams, attributes the company’s innovative success to its failsafe battery energy storage systems (BESS), which feature breakthrough anti-propagation technology designed to prevent thermal runaway and mitigate the risk of lithium-ion battery fires. Prioritizing safety, scalability, and clean energy solutions, Viridi has developed the world’s first failsafe lithium-ion BESS. This cutting-edge system integrates advanced AI and connectivity, enabling unparalleled remote monitoring and optimization.
Notably, Viridi’s BESS was the first to be installed in an occupied space, setting a new standard for energy storage. From powering remote mountain races, the largest sporting event, and music festivals in the desert, Viridi’s systems are also indispensable in critical infrastructure and emergency response efforts, including deployments during hurricanes Helene and Milton.
“At Viridi, we didn’t see the challenges of the energy storage sector as insurmountable barriers, but as opportunities to make a significant impact on the clean energy transition,” said Jon M. Williams. “By pioneering fail-safe lithium-ion battery technology, we tackled one of the sector’s most daunting safety concerns head-on. This endeavor wasn’t just about pushing the boundaries of current technology, but also about urging the industry towards adopting fail-safe standards, redefining what’s possible in energy storage and safety.”
Viridi’s 160,000-square-foot smart manufacturing facility in Buffalo, NY has further boosted the company’s production capacity, allowing it to scale rapidly to meet rising demand.
Overall, 2024 Technology Fast 500 companies achieved revenue growth ranging from 201% to 153,625% over the three-year time frame, with an average growth rate of 1,981% and median growth rate of 460%.
