WATT REMOTE is designed for industrial clients with power reliability or availability challenges, providing power when and where it’s needed most. WATT NOMAD meets the power needs of recreational users, providing clean, quiet power that protects the environment while explorers enjoy it.
Caine Finnerty, CEO and Founder at WATT, said:
The expansion of our additive manufacturing capabilities is a significant milestone for the company, as we prepare for the next phase of WATT’s growth.
“WATT has added multiple custom ceramic printers and robotic automation as part of our expansion, supporting 24/7 operations as we implement scaled production to meet our commercial demand.”
The WATT Fuel Cell expansion adds 20,000 square feet to the manufacturing facility and office space. WATT headquarters now includes the most advanced tubular solid oxide fuel cell manufacturing facilities in the world. The WATT-patented additive manufacturing process for tubular solid oxide fuel cell production maximizes both fuel cell efficiency and production volume. This critical manufacturing expansion will enable WATT to further improve its quality process, scale commercial deliveries, and boost production efficiencies.
Danielle Ramaley, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at WATT, said:
