Ensurge Micropower Relocates to Boost Solid-State Battery Development

Ensurge Micropower is moving to a new San Jose facility built to speed up solid-state microbattery pilot production and cut overhead costs.

Ensurge Micropower ASA is relocating its San Jose operations to a new 32,000-sq-ft (2,973-sq-m) facility at 130 Baytech Drive, purpose-built to advance the company's solid-state lithium microbattery development and pilot-line production.

The move is a shift toward a leaner, more disciplined operating model built around process control, quality assurance, and reproducibility as the company works to commercialize its technology for med-tech, consumer electronics, IoT, and defense applications. The new space also gives customers and partners a dedicated environment to see pilot-line capabilities firsthand, which could speed up qualification and adoption decisions for companies evaluating solid-state microbatteries for their own product lines.

Ensurge expects the new building to reduce facility costs from 30% to 10% of monthly operating expenses, freeing up resources the company can redirect toward technology development.

"This relocation is a decisive step in reshaping Ensurge around the needs of a lean, focused, product-led solid-state battery company," said Shauna McIntyre, Chief Executive Officer of Ensurge Micropower. "The Baytech facility is tailored for optimum development, demonstration, and scalability of our technology. Just as importantly, it gives customers and partners a compelling place to engage directly with our team and see our battery development and pilot-line capabilities first-hand."

Ensurge will gain access to the Baytech Drive facility starting October 1, 2026. The company will retain a defined process area at its current Junction Avenue site through year-end to keep operations running while equipment and workflows are transferred and qualified.
