Construction timeline and capacity planning
The megafactory is scheduled for completion by the end of June 2026. The vertically integrated design means the facility will handle testing, refurbishment and deployment operations under one roof, eliminating the logistics complexity and cost associated with multi-site processing.
The construction schedule has been compressed through parallel workstreams, with building envelope completion proceeding alongside equipment installation and systems integration. This approach reduces overall project duration whilst maintaining quality standards and safety compliance.
Power availability has become a constraint for data centre operators and industrial customers. The buildout of AI infrastructure is driving electricity demand upward at a rate that grid expansion alone could struggle to match in the near term, according to the company.
Second-life battery systems could address part of that infrastructure gap. By offering energy storage without the lead times associated with new battery manufacturing or large-scale grid projects, Moment Energy could provide an alternative for operators seeking capacity.
The facility will process batteries sourced from across North America. According to Moment Energy, keeping the supply chain regional reduces transportation requirements and supports domestic manufacturing capacity whilst ensuring consistent supply chain visibility and quality control throughout the sourcing process.
