Fluence Energy, Inc. Stock Price, News & Analysis

Fluence (NASDAQ: FLNC) has successfully completed extensive fire safety testing for its high-density Gridstack Pro 5000 energy storage system, which can deliver up to 5.6 MWh in a 20-foot enclosure. The testing, conducted in partnership with CSA Group, included five days of explosion testing and large-scale fire evaluations at Safe Laboratories. The system demonstrated effective gas ventilation during dispersion testing and proper deflagration panel deployment under extreme conditions. The fire tests, which exceeded current UL 9540A standards and aligned with upcoming NFPA 855 (2026) requirements, proved that Gridstack Pro 5000 can prevent fire propagation between enclosures even in tightly spaced layouts. Independent observers, including experts from Hiller and standards development committees, validated the testing process.

Fluence Energy (NASDAQ: FLNC) hosted U.S. Senator John Curtis (R-UT) at their Utah manufacturing facility that produces battery modules for energy storage systems. The visit highlighted Fluence's expanding U.S. manufacturing investments, supported by federal tax credits. The company sources battery cells from a facility in Smyrna, Tennessee - the first U.S. facility to manufacture LFP battery cells for utility-scale storage - and is expanding operations with partners in Arizona and Texas.

Since announcing Utah operations in 2022, Fluence has strengthened its domestic supply chain commitment, aiming to onshore production of major components for grid-scale battery systems. The company's solutions support grid flexibility and reliability while contributing to U.S. energy security and regional economic growth.

Fluence Energy (NASDAQ: FLNC) has launched a new manufacturing facility in Goodyear, Arizona, focused on producing enclosures with U.S. steel and battery management system (BMS) hardware for grid-scale energy storage systems. The facility will create 250 new jobs and is part of Fluence's broader strategy to onshore production of major components for grid-scale battery storage systems. Through manufacturing partnerships across Arizona, Texas, Tennessee, Utah, and South Carolina, Fluence is investing approximately $700M and creating over 1,200 manufacturing jobs and 450 construction jobs in 2025. The company has deployed or contracted over 20,000 MWh of battery energy storage capacity across 80+ U.S. projects. This expansion aligns with the American Clean Power Association's commitment to invest $100B in American-made grid batteries by 2030, aiming to create 350,000 industry jobs.

Fluence Energy (NASDAQ: FLNC) reported disappointing Q2 2025 results and lowered its full-year guidance due to U.S. tariff uncertainty. Revenue declined 31% YoY to $431.6 million, while net loss widened to $41.9 million from $12.9 million. The company reduced its FY2025 revenue guidance to $2.6-2.8 billion (from $3.1-3.7 billion) and Adjusted EBITDA guidance to $0-20 million (from $70-100 million). The $700 million revenue reduction stems from decisions to pause U.S. projects amid tariff uncertainty. Despite challenges, Fluence maintains a strong backlog of $4.9 billion and total cash of $610 million. The company secured its first contract for the new Smartstack™ product, expected for delivery in fiscal 2026, and reaffirmed its annual recurring revenue guidance of $145 million.

NTR, a sustainable infrastructure investor, has partnered with Fluence to develop a major battery energy storage system in Finland. The 55MW / 110MWh Uusnivala project, located in Nivala, Northern Ostrobothnia, will be one of Finland's largest battery installations.

The project will use Fluence's advanced Gridstack Pro 5000 technology and Nispera asset management platform to provide critical services including frequency regulation, grid balancing, and energy shifting. Construction is set to begin shortly, with completion expected by mid-2026.

This marks the first battery project from the L&G NTR Clean Power Fund, which recently secured over €600m in commitments. The project follows NTR's earlier Finnish investment in the operational Pajuperänkangas 86.8MW windfarm, demonstrating their expanding presence in Finland's renewable energy sector.
