Modern battery gigafactory interior with automated manufacturing lines

United States Foundry for Advanced Batteries

Building the Foundries That
Power the Future.

The United States Foundry for Advanced Batteries is creating the manufacturing infrastructure that powers defense, aerospace, artificial intelligence, energy storage, transportation, and critical infrastructure across the United States and allied nations.

A consortium of manufacturers, suppliers, investors, governments, and innovators building sovereign battery manufacturing capacity.

Strategic pillars uniting the allied industrial base

Illustrative figures drawn from widely reported industry and analyst sources.

The Thesis

"The companies that design battery technologies should not have to build billion-dollar factories. Just as semiconductor companies rely on foundries to manufacture chips, battery innovators should have access to trusted manufacturing infrastructure capable of producing cells, packs, and systems at commercial scale."

The Model

A proven playbook, applied to batteries.

SEMATECH for Batteries

A neutral consortium aligning industry on shared standards, R&D, and qualification.

Foundry Ecosystem for Batteries

Trusted contract manufacturing — designers focus on chemistry, foundries scale production.

CHIPS-Style Model for Battery Manufacturing

Public–private capital architecture that catalyzes a sovereign industrial base.

Six Strategic Pillars

The architecture of sovereign battery manufacturing.

Six mutually reinforcing pillars that together form a resilient, allied industrial base — from foundries and materials to risk, warranty, and live battery intelligence.

Battery Foundries

Shared, trusted-source contract manufacturing for cells, packs, and systems.

Equipment Independence

Rebuild domestic battery manufacturing-equipment capability.

Materials Security

Resilient, increasingly closed-loop critical mineral supply chains.

Workforce Development

Certified curricula tied directly to foundry operating roles.

NATO & Allied Collaboration

A transatlantic battery manufacturing ecosystem.

Battery Risk & Lifecycle Intelligence

With Re::Guard Energy — risk transfer, warranty, compliance, and live battery passports.

Global Footprint

A Global Challenge, an Allied Answer.

Cell manufacturing today is concentrated in a single region. The Alliance is building dispersed, trusted capacity across the United States and partner democracies.

Beyond Batteries

Batteries first. An industrial platform for what comes next.

US-FAB starts with batteries because batteries are one of the most critical technologies for America's economic competitiveness, energy security, and national security. The Alliance is also building a broader ecosystem that supports the entire advanced manufacturing landscape connected to the battery supply chain and U.S. industrial competitiveness.

The battery ecosystem remains the foundation of the Alliance — critical minerals and rare earths, active materials, anodes and cathodes, electrolytes and separators, components, cells, battery management systems, packs and integration, recycling and the circular economy, lithium-ion and emerging chemistries. From that foundation, US-FAB extends to the strategic industries that share its supply chains, workforce, and infrastructure.
