Last year, Redwood opened our first R&D lab in San Francisco to be closer to one of the best engineering talent pools in the world. Less than a year later, we're expanding that footprint by more than four times. The expansion reflects the rapid growth of Redwood Energy and the teams behind it.
Energy storage has quickly become the fastest-growing part of Redwood's business. Customer demand has accelerated, and our San Francisco teams have played a central role; building, testing, and deploying energy storage systems designed for speed, flexibility, and real-world performance. This work sits at the intersection of hardware, software, and power electronics, with a direct line from lab to commercial deployment.
The expanded R&D space supports growing teams focused on energy systems engineering, integration, and deployment. The work happening here is deeply connected across the company, strengthening Redwood's broader ecosystem: from battery recycling and critical minerals recovery to large-scale energy storage projects. The expanded footprint includes lab infrastructure designed for hands-on experimentation, rapid iteration, and continued innovation across our energy business.
