What Pomega does
Pomega Enerji Depolama Teknolojileri A.Ş. is Turkey's first private-sector lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery cell manufacturer and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kontrolmatik Technologies, a Borsa İstanbul-listed engineering group. The company produces proprietary LFP cells in both cylindrical (PLFP series, 100-314Ah) and prismatic (PBG 153-409Ah; PBA 128-256Ah) form factors, plus in-house Battery Management System (BMS) and Energy Management System (EMS) software, and packages these into a vertically integrated portfolio that spans residential single/three-phase systems, stackable high-voltage batteries, industrial and telecom energy storage, portable power stations, and turnkey containerized BESS.
Operations are anchored by a gigafactory in Polatlı, Ankara, and a $300M, 500,000 sq ft facility in Walterboro, South Carolina (3 GWh initial, expandable to 6 GWh, ~575 new jobs, eligible for an estimated $916M in IRA Production Tax Credits through 2029). Combined planned capacity exceeds 10 GWh, supplemented by 5 GWh of reserved capacity for Nordex Group wind-integrated storage and a 7 GWh supply agreement with Korea-based ONE.
Pomega sells through direct enterprise sales and strategic channel partners (Siemens, Nordex, Varta, Fortis Enerji, Astor Enerji) into utility, industrial, residential, telecom, and EV-charging segments, with project-based multi-year contract pricing, 300+ completed projects, and active operations in 35+ countries including Turkey, the US, North Macedonia, Romania, Iraq, and Mexico. Customers include TEİAŞ, Ford Otosan, Progresiva (a Kontrolmatik subsidiary), and Nordex Group, and the company has been recognized with the 2024 Henry Ford Technology Award and an Energynomics 2024 Outstanding Development Award.

Pomega product offering
Product offeringCore offering
Pomega manufactures proprietary lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery cells, modules, and turnkey battery energy storage system (BESS) solutions for utility-scale, industrial, commercial, residential, and telecom applications. The company operates gigafactories in Polatlı, Ankara (Turkey) and Walterboro, South Carolina (USA), and integrates its own proprietary Battery Management System (BMS) and Energy Management System (EMS) software into the products. Its vertically integrated portfolio spans LFP cells, modules, racks, residential ESS, commercial/industrial three-phase ESS, stackable high-voltage batteries, high-rate discharge batteries, portable units, and containerized BESS solutions.
Product overview
Pomega is Turkey's first private sector lithium-ion battery cell factory, producing proprietary lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery technology. The product portfolio operates as a platform-plus-modules architecture built around three core technology pillars: LFP battery cells (cylindrical PLFP series with 100Ah-314Ah capacities; prismatic PBG series with 153Ah-409Ah and PBA series with 128Ah-256Ah capacities), proprietary Battery Management System (BMS) and Energy Management System (EMS) software developed by domestic engineers, and integrated energy storage solutions. The product line spans from component level (LFP cells, modules, battery racks) through ready-to-deploy systems: residential single-phase (PHYB-5K) and three-phase (PHYB-10K-3P) storage systems; stackable high-voltage G Series batteries; industrial and telecom energy storage (PBH series, PBQ series, PBT towers, PRESS/PRESS-G high-rate discharge batteries); portable power solutions (POD series); and turnkey containerized BESS solutions. These are deployed across eight solution categories: utility-scale power plants, outdoor/EV charging, factory/industrial, residential, portable, standalone, telecom, and hybrid mobile applications. Pomega also integrates Plan-S satellite-based IoT connectivity into its energy storage systems for global remote monitoring capabilities.

Pomega competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- ONE (Our Next Energy): Michigan-based LFP battery cell manufacturer focused on stationary storage and EV applications; one of the few Western LFP cell producers at gigafactory scale and a signed 7 GWh production partner with Pomega — making it both a peer and a customer, and the most directly comparable technology counterpart.
- Fluence Energy: Leading global BESS integrator offering turnkey utility-scale energy storage solutions with proprietary energy management software; competes head-to-head with Pomega in utility-scale and C&I storage tenders, particularly in EU and emerging markets where both are expanding.
- EVE Energy: Chinese LFP cell and BESS manufacturer with cylindrical and prismatic cell offerings across consumer, EV, and stationary storage markets; directly comparable to Pomega in product portfolio and a price benchmark for LFP cells globally.
- Varta AG: German battery manufacturer across microbatteries, lithium-ion cells, and energy storage; signed a joint venture MoU with Pomega for Balkans/Turkey markets while transitioning its own portfolio from NMC to LFP — making it simultaneously a partner and a competitor in the European storage market.
- Narada Power Source: Chinese battery and BESS manufacturer with strong utility-scale and telecom backup power presence globally; directly competes with Pomega in BESS containers, telecom backup, and emerging-market utility storage contracts.
Broad incumbents
- Sungrow: Chinese-headquartered global leader in solar inverters and energy storage systems, with a broad ESS portfolio including cell-to-system integration; competes with Pomega in utility-scale and C&I storage markets globally and benefits from the same LFP cost-curve tailwinds.
- BYD: Vertically integrated Chinese EV and battery giant that is also one of the world's largest LFP cell producers and an established BESS supplier; competes with Pomega across cell pricing and turnkey storage, with significant cost advantages from internal cell production.
- CATL (Contemporary Amperex Technology): World's largest battery manufacturer with dominant LFP cell production and significant stationary storage exposure; sets the global LFP cost benchmark and is the principal competitive threat Pomega faces on cell-level economics in any market without localization barriers.
- Saft (TotalEnergies): French industrial battery specialist (owned by TotalEnergies) producing cells and BESS for grid, industrial, and telecom applications; competes with Pomega in European utility-scale storage and offers an established alternative for customers seeking non-Chinese LFP supply.
Emerging players
- Gotion High-Tech: Chinese LFP cell manufacturer rapidly expanding Western capacity (including a US gigafactory in Illinois) and targeting automotive and stationary storage markets; directly comparable to Pomega on LFP cell technology and US localization strategy.
