What Powersafe does

Powersafe Baterias Especiais is a Brazilian designer, manufacturer, and distributor of stationary batteries and battery energy storage systems headquartered in São Caetano do Sul, São Paulo. Founded in 2003, the company operates three physical facilities across São Paulo, Minas Gerais, and Goiás, with a portfolio exceeding 400 SKUs spanning VRLA (AGM and gel), ventilated lead-acid (Freedom, Optima), and lithium (Getpower GP LiFe, Wall, MOD5-LV/HV, RACK-LV) technologies, plus the proprietary GP BESS modular system ranging from 232 kWh to 6 MWh. It distributes Huawei's LUNA2000 BESS platform in Brazil under the "BESS Huawei by Powersafe" brand and is the official Brazilian distributor for EcoFlow portable power stations (RIVER and DELTA series). The company also operates the Ecosafe reverse-logistics and recycling program compliant with CONAMA Resolution 401/08.

Powersafe's business model is hardware-led with channel and direct-sales distribution. Revenue streams include battery hardware sales, BESS system sales (including ~35 MWh of Huawei-partnered projects projected for 2026), EcoFlow portable power distribution, and Ecosafe recycling services. Go-to-market combines a direct sales force targeting enterprise and industrial customers, partnerships with system integrators and EPC contractors for solar/BESS installations, a nationwide distributor/reseller network for EcoFlow, and a B2B e-commerce storefront. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.

The customer base spans telecommunications (Claro, Telebras), financial services (Banco do Brasil, Bradesco, Caixa Econômica Federal), data centers (Scala, Ascenty), industrial and energy (Cemig, ABB, Schneider Electric), and retail (Marisa, Riachuelo). Application verticals include telecom tower backup, data center UPS, hospital/medical backup, industrial manufacturing power continuity, agricultural cold storage and irrigation, and increasingly solar-plus-storage. Leadership includes Diretor Executivo Leandro Alvares and Gerente de Operações André Ribeiro, who was appointed to coordinate ABSOLAR in São Paulo in 2025, signaling the company's formal entry into the photovoltaic energy market.
