Inlyte Energy, a manufacturer of iron-sodium battery energy storage systems, and NTS Colocation AG, part of NTS Group, a Swiss-based operator of carrier-neutral, Tier IV-certified data centers, has announced a partnership to deploy long-duration energy storage across NTS facilities, beginning with a pilot installation at its Bern data center. The companies have agreed on a roadmap to deploy up to 2 megawatts of iron-sodium battery capacity by 2028, starting with a 600 kilowatt hours installation targeted for commissioning at the end of 2026.
NTS operates high-performance colocation data centers in Zurich and Bern, powered by 100 percent renewable energy and incorporating advanced waste heat recovery. The initial installation in Bern will serve as a technical and operational validation of the technology in a live data center environment. This first phase will assess system performance and integration with existing electrical and control infrastructure. Successful validation at
