HiTHIUM and El-Mor Partner on 1.5GWh Long-Duration Energy Storage Projects in Israel

Tzur Yigal, Israel, November 6th, 2025 – HiTHIUM, a leading global provider of long-duration energy storage technology, has entered into a strategic cooperation agreement with El-Mor Renewable Energy, one of Israel’s largest EPC companies. This partnership represents a significant milestone in HiTHIUM’s international expansion into long-duration energy storage (LDES) markets.

Israel has been rapidly scaling up its renewable energy capacity as part of its national strategy to reduce dependence on fossil fuels. This expansion has heightened the need for grid-scale energy storage to support the integration of renewables and maintain grid stability and reliability. Long-duration energy storage is increasingly seen as a crucial enabler of this clean-energy transition, enabling surplus solar power generated during daylight hours to be stored and used during peak demand or extended periods of low generation.

Under the agreement, El-Mor will design and construct battery energy storage systems (BESS) and related infrastructure for multiple projects, totaling 1.5GWh in capacity and 300MW in power. Among these projects is the landmark RAMAT BEKA 1GWh PV+BESS initiative—the largest of its kind in the region—which is set to establish a new benchmark for grid flexibility.

HiTHIUM will supply its ∞Power 6.25MWh BESS as part of its Energy Equipment Package (EEP), a comprehensive one-stop solution that covers both DC and AC systems. The EEP integrates battery containers, PCS, MV transformers, MV switchgear, and an EMS (PPC) into a unified platform, supported by end-to-end engineering services—from energy and power sizing to grid connection modeling, protection coordination, and fire safety system design. This project will also mark the first major overseas deployment of HiTHIUM’s long-duration energy storage technology.

“Israel and the broader Middle East are at a pivotal moment in the renewable energy transformation,” said Steven Song, HiTHIUM Senior Director of Sales, Israel. “Through this strategic partnership with El-Mor, we are delivering the long-duration energy storage technology needed to help stabilize Israel’s grid, boost solar integration, and build a cleaner, more resilient power system for the future.”

Avi Elkayam, Chairman of El-Mor Renewable Energy, added, “We are proud to partner with HiTHIUM in advancing Israel’s transition to sustainable and resilient energy systems. HiTHIUM’s ∞Power 6.25MWh solution, combined with our expertise in executing large-scale PV projects, high-voltage substations, and BESS systems, allows us to deliver a one-stop solution for the Israeli energy market.”

This collaboration is of strategic importance to HiTHIUM, showcasing its leadership in engineering and innovation through its first major overseas LDES project. By uniting El-Mor’s local EPC experience with HiTHIUM’s technological strengths, the partnership is poised to set a new standard for utility-scale energy storage deployment.
