HiTHIUM and El-Mor Team Up for Major 1.5GWh Energy Storage Project in Israel
Strategic Cooperation for Renewable Energy in Israel
On November 6, 2025, HiTHIUM, a prominent player in long-duration energy storage solutions, entered into a strategic collaboration with El-Mor Renewable Energy, one of Israel's leading engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) firms. This partnership is a pivotal moment in HiTHIUM's journey to expand its footprint in international energy storage markets, particularly focusing on Israel's renewable energy landscape.
Israel is on a mission to transition away from fossil fuels, driven by a national strategy emphasizing sustainable energy sources. With the increasing integration of solar and other renewable resources, there is a growing requirement for grid-scale energy storage to ensure the stability and reliability of the electricity grid. Long-Duration Energy Storage (LDES) is pivotal in this transition, facilitating the capture of excess solar energy generated during daylight hours for later use during peak hours or periods of low generation.
This collaboration aims to deploy multiple energy storage projects totaling 1.5GWh, offering a power capacity of 300MW. Among the projects will be the notable RAMAT BEKA installation, featuring a 1GWh PV+BESS configuration, setting a new standard for grid flexibility in the region. HiTHIUM will provide its innovative ∞Power 6.25MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) as part of a comprehensive Energy Equipment Package (EEP). This package is a one-stop solution integrating essential components such as battery containers, power conversion systems (PCS), medium voltage transformers, switchgear, and energy management systems (EMS) into a unified platform that is supported by extensive engineering services.
The partnership is significant not just for the scale of the projects but also as HiTHIUM's first major international deployment of its cutting-edge energy storage technology. Steven Song, HiTHIUM's Senior Director of Sales for Israel, remarked, "Israel and the broader Middle East are at a pivotal juncture in renewable energy transformation. Through this partnership with El-Mor, we are contributing to the stability of Israel's grid while enhancing solar integration for a cleaner, more resilient energy future."
Avi Elkayam, Chairman of El-Mor Renewable Energy, expressed pride in the collaboration, highlighting the company's large-scale project expertise. He stated, "Our partnership with HiTHIUM marks a crucial step toward advancing Israel's aspirations for sustainable and resilient energy systems. Strengthening our capabilities in managing extensive photovoltaic (PV) projects alongside high capacity battery storage solutions allows us to provide holistic solutions tailored for the Israeli energy market."
This strategic cooperation underscores HiTHIUM's commitment to engineering excellence and innovation within the energy storage sector. By leveraging El-Mor's local expertise alongside HiTHIUM's forward-thinking technologies, this initiative sets a benchmark for utility-scale energy storage deployments in Israel and potentially throughout the Middle East.
Founded in 2019, HiTHIUM has rapidly emerged as a leading global enterprise in the renewable energy space, focused on developing advanced energy storage technologies. With an emphasis on customer satisfaction, the company has successfully shipped gigawatt-hour scale lithium-ion energy storage systems across more than 20 countries. On the other hand, El-Mor Renewable Energy has been instrumental in advancing Israel's solar sector, having designed and installed over 1,000MWp of solar capacity combined with significant battery storage systems. Their operational management division oversees hundreds of solar and BESS plants, making them a key player in Israel's energy landscape.
In conclusion, the collaboration between HiTHIUM and El-Mor Renewable Energy not only promises to enhance energy storage capabilities in Israel but also symbolizes a broader commitment to a sustainable energy future. As both companies work together, they are setting a new precedent for renewable energy technology deployment, reflecting the region's ambition for innovative solutions in the face of climate change challenges.
