Sovereign cell production · under German control

Europe's power is critical.
Its cells shouldn't be imported.

AMPHOUR is Europe's dual-use battery cell foundry — sovereign production under German control where your cells are built, from a single 1 MWh campaign up to series, without building your own factory.

A chip has its foundry. Now the cell has one too.

How you scale

One partner, one facility,
every stage.

No serious program bets on a supplier who can only do one phase. We do all four, on the same platform — no requalification between stages.

  1. S1

    Research & Prototype

    From 1 MWh · A-grade

    Campaigns from as little as 1 MWh. A-grade cells from the first run, not the hundredth.

  2. S2

    Sample Phases (A/B)

    Program qualification

    A-sample and B-sample campaigns built for program qualification, not for a lab demo.

  3. S3

    Ramp-up

    Up to ~30 MWh/yr

    Pilot-scale campaigns that prove the line before you commit to series.

  4. S4

    Series Production

    Up to ~100 MWh/yr

    Modular lines, changeover in days — not months — between campaigns.

Same platform, first sample to full series. You don't start over when you scale up.

Sovereignty

Your IP never leaves your hands.
Production stays under German control.

We produce your cells under German control, under German jurisdiction, with a supply chain you tune from 100% local to partially local — sovereignty on your terms, not a slogan.

Capability flows in. Customer data never flows out. Your requirement, your chemistry, your production data — contractually and architecturally, they stay inside this entity. Nowhere else.

Structure

We tell you this
before you have to ask.

Serious procurement runs diligence on every supplier. We'd rather you heard our structure from us than found it later.

AMPHOUR operates as an independent German entity — separate branding, separate systems, separate data infrastructure from any affiliate. Customer IP, program data, and production records never leave this entity, by contract and by architecture. That's not a claim. It's how the building is wired.

Your competitor may share a hallway with someone we work with. They will never be in your data.

FAQ

What buyers
actually ask.

What is AMPHOUR?

AMPHOUR is Europe's dual-use battery cell foundry — a company that engineers and produces battery cells under German control, from a single 1 MWh campaign up to series production, keeping each customer's chemistry, form factor and intellectual property under German control.

What is a battery cell foundry?

A battery cell foundry manufactures battery cells to a customer’s own design and specification — the way a semiconductor foundry manufactures chips designed by others — so the customer keeps the intellectual property while the foundry provides the sovereign production capacity.

Where does AMPHOUR produce its cells?

AMPHOUR produces its cells under German control, operating as CELLOVATE GmbH, an independent German-registered entity in Aachen, under German jurisdiction.

What applications does AMPHOUR serve?

AMPHOUR produces cells for three dual-use application categories: UAV and unmanned mobile systems, special vehicles, and stationary power supply — the last covering uninterrupted power supply, charging solutions and directed-energy systems.

Can AMPHOUR build cells to my own chemistry and qualification standard?

Yes. AMPHOUR engineers cells to the customer’s chemistry, form factor and qualification target, from prototype through series production, rather than supplying a fixed catalogue product.

What is the smallest order AMPHOUR will produce?

AMPHOUR serves campaigns from as little as 1 MWh — batch sizes most manufacturers will not take — and scales the same platform up to series production.
