Opportunity


AI is rewriting the rules 
of electricity

Artificial intelligence is driving an unprecedented surge in electricity demand.

But the challenge is not only energy — it is power stability.

AI workloads create rapid power spikes that stress electrical infrastructure.

At the same time, most power grids were built decades ago and were never designed for this level of volatility.

A new layer of electricity infrastructure is emerging.

Illustrative image of electrical grid infrastructure

Aging power infrastructure was not designed for modern volatility.

Solution


Energy storage becomes core infrastructure

As electricity demand grows and power volatility increases, energy storage is becoming a critical layer of modern electrical infrastructure.

Batteries are rapidly being deployed to support grids, data centers, and renewable energy systems.

But most existing batteries were designed primarily for energy storage.

Modern electrical infrastructure increasingly requires systems that can both stabilize power in milliseconds and store energy for hours. 

Modern power systems now require a new battery architecture.

Conceptual illustration of SorbiForce deployment at a power substation as a new layer on top of legacy power infrastructure.


Product


SorbiForce

SorbiForce is a new type of battery architecture designed for modern electrical infrastructure.

The system combines millisecond power stabilization and energy storage in a single platform.

This allows grids, AI data centers, and critical facilities to absorb rapid power spikes while storing energy locally.

Unlike conventional batteries designed primarily for energy storage, SorbiForce is built to manage power volatility and energy storage simultaneously.

The architecture uses carbon-based electrodes and a water-based electrolyte, avoiding lithium, flammable solvents, and critical metals.

SorbiForce systems are designed for safe operation, long service life, and local manufacturing using widely available materials.

Key Components

Scientific Breakthrough

The battery is resistant to mechanical damage, non-flammable, and non-explosive. It has no problem with overcharging, requires no complex cooling, and does not have thermal runaway. Firefighters use our battery electrolyte salts. 

Product Features

We've developed an optimal energy storage system that seamlessly blends crucial features. Additionally, we've engineered SorbiForce batteries to endure over 7,000 charge/discharge cycles.

Why does SorbiForce Outperform Existing Batteries?


Traction


Industry recognition and early validation

SorbiForce is gaining recognition across the global energy and deep-tech ecosystem.

• S&P Global Platts Global Energy Awards — Finalist (Rising Star)
• Hello Tomorrow Global Challenge — Deep Tech Pioneer (selected from 4800+ startups)
• Google for Startups — Startup support program

The company has also participated in leading innovation programs including Plug and Play Tech Center and gener8tor.

SorbiForce has been approved as a vendor in the Duke Energy system and is in technical discussions with researchers at Arizona State University’s LEAPS Lab.

More than 1,000 investors have already backed SorbiForce through previous crowdfunding campaigns.

2 Wins on 2 Continents!

We received a prize from VentureWell, supported by the Global Innovation through Science and Technology (GIST) and the US Department of State.

We achieved first place in the startup competition organized by the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT).

We actively participate in industry events and conferences, acting as exhibitors and speakers to boost the SorbiForce brand's visibility among prospective clients, partners, and the press.

We aim to cultivate enduring relationships with our top-performing partners, promoting mutual growth and success.

  • We are continuously exploring opportunities to join forces with potential partners who share our industry focus, have geographical coverage, and hold market influence.
  • We promptly update partners about product enhancements, strategic shifts, and upcoming sales initiatives to ensure a thriving partnership.

Customers


Current and target customers include:

• Utilities and grid operators
• AI data centers and digital infrastructure providers
• Commercial and industrial energy users
• Microgrid and distributed energy developers

Selected engagements include:

• Approved vendor status with a major U.S. utility (Duke Energy), with pilot discussions underway
• Active discussions and pilot preparation with infrastructure partners
• Multiple commercial inquiries following recent media coverage

Current demand exceeds available production capacity.


Business model


Battery System Deployments with Scalable Local Manufacturing

SorbiForce deploys battery systems for modern electrical infrastructure, serving utilities, data centers, and industrial customers.

The company operates a B2B model focused on system sales and infrastructure deployments.

To scale production, SorbiForce is building a modular manufacturing model based on containerized micro-factories deployed close to points of demand.

This approach enables:

  • Faster deployment of production capacity
  • Local manufacturing using widely available materials
  • Lower reliance on global supply chains
  • Modular expansion as demand grows

SorbiForce has already secured a significant portion of the equipment required for its first micro-factory and is operating pilot production.

This model links production scale-up directly to system deployment.

Market


Where SorbiForce Wins

$1.6 trillion 

in battery investment by 2040

A massive capital cycle is already underway. 

The highest-value demand is shifting toward systems that can stabilize power and store energy in one architecture.

Demand is being accelerated by: 

• Artificial intelligence and data center expansion
• Grid modernization and resilience needs
• Growth of distributed and critical power infrastructure

SorbiForce is designed to serve key segments of this market:

• AI data centers
• Electrical grids and utilities
• Commercial and industrial facilities
• Distributed energy and critical infrastructure

Competition


Why SorbiForce Wins

A new class of battery architecture

Conventional battery technologies were designed primarily for energy storage.

SorbiForce was designed from the beginning as a new class of battery architecture for modern electrical infrastructure.

Most existing batteries trade off safety, cost, or performance. SorbiForce is designed to combine these in one system.

Key advantages include:

• Non-metal architecture that avoids lithium and critical metals
• Non-flammable chemistry with a water-based electrolyte
• Millisecond power stabilization combined with energy storage
• Regenerative design that can be refreshed with water over time
• Local manufacturing potential using widely available materials

Together, these characteristics enable safer deployment, longer system lifetimes, and greater supply-chain independence compared to conventional battery technologies.

Vision and strategy


Energy independence as infrastructure

The global energy system is becoming more complex, centralized, and fragile.

SorbiForce addresses this by building battery systems that enable stable, local, and independent power for AI data centers, grids, and critical infrastructure.

Our approach is based on three principles:

• Local materials and manufacturing
• Non-metal, safe, and scalable architecture
• Systems designed for both power stability and energy storage

This allows SorbiForce to reduce reliance on global supply chains, simplify deployment, and improve system reliability.

With pilot production already in place and growing commercial demand, the company is focused on scaling manufacturing and deploying systems in high-demand markets.


Leadership


SorbiForce in the Center of Innovation

SorbiForce is supported by experienced operators, industry experts, and partners across energy, infrastructure, and technology.
