Situated in the Silicon Valley region, the Fremont factory is part of Gotion's strategic positioning in the American market, with a planned production capacity of 1 GWh. Featuring an 85% automation rate, this facility represents Gotion's first Pack production line in the United States.

The Fremont factory is geared towards the American Energy Storage System (ESS) market, focusing on the production of portable energy storage products and home energy storage products ranging from 3 kWh to 30 kWh. Additionally, the factory will continue its efforts in technological and product innovation, customer expansion, service enhancement, and supporting capacity to deliver reliable and safe integrated energy storage systems.

Gotion High-tech founded its Silicon Valley Research Institute in 2014, marking the starting point for Gotion's internationalization.

Senior Vice President of Gotion High-tech and President of Gotion Americas Business, Li Chen, emphasized the company's emerging presence in the American market. "For the past decade, we have consistently adhered to a three-in-one strategy featuring localized research & development, localized manufacturing, and localized marketing. From the initial development of battery management systems to the present battery factory, we have encountered numerous challenges and tests. Today, we have made a name for ourselves in the Americas market, and with the help of the Illinois battery factory and Michigan material factory, Gotion will work together with customers to build a localized and diversified supply chain system characterized by a full value chain."
