Redwood and Crusoe expand compute to 7x scale after 99.2% microgrid uptime

In June 2025, we launched a Redwood Energy project with Crusoe, deploying the largest second-life battery system in the world. That 12 MW / 63 MWh microgrid combines solar and repurposed batteries to power four Crusoe Spark modular data centers and was built in just under four months. 

Since deployment, the system has delivered 99.2% operational availability with minimal unplanned downtime, running continuously. This has exceeded our operational reliability targets and built a foundation of trust between the companies. 

It also confirms the core premise behind Redwood Energy's platform: that repurposed EV batteries, orchestrated through our Pack Manager technology, can deliver reliable, around-the-clock power for the most demanding infrastructure applications – with a meaningful cost and performance advantage. The modular nature of both Crusoe's Spark data centers and Redwood's storage systems enables a fundamentally different deployment model – one that is faster, more flexible, and built to scale. 

On the strength of these results, we’re expanding the campus deployment to support 20 additional Crusoe Spark modular data centers, nearly 7x the original compute capacity. 

This kind of growth reflects a broader shift. The demand for power is accelerating while traditional grid interconnection is slowing down, pushing behind-the-meter generation or entirely off-grid data centers from radical concepts to mainstream solutions.  These architectures all depend on increasing amounts of energy storage and coordinated energy management - this is exactly what Redwood Energy focuses on delivering with the fastest deployments and lowest cost in the market. 

We're proud of our deepening partnership with Crusoe, and we see this expansion as a proof point for what's ahead. Redwood Energy has a growing pipeline of projects across multiple partners – ranging from hundreds of megawatt hours to multiple gigawatt hours – all built on the same modular, rapidly deployable foundation.
