The basics:
Eos Energy to relocate its global headquarters from Edison to Pittsburgh
$352.9M expansion to create 735 jobs in Pennsylvania
New facilities to boost annual battery capacity
Eos Energy Enterprises, the Edison-based maker of zinc-based battery energy storage systems, announced plans to relocate its global headquarters to Pittsburgh and significantly expand its manufacturing operations in Allegheny County.
The $352.9 million investment, supported by $22 million from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and $2 million from Allegheny County, is expected to create 735 new jobs and retain 265 existing positions.
The move — part of Eos’ broader growth initiative known as Project AMAZE — will establish a new 40,000-square-foot headquarters at Nova Place on Pittsburgh’s North Shore in the second half of 2026. Eos will also lease a 432,000-square-foot facility in Marshall Township to add production lines and increase its annual energy storage manufacturing capacity to 8 gigawatt-hours.
Eos, which develops and manufactures aqueous zinc batteries for utility, industrial and commercial power storage, said the expansion underscores its commitment to domestic manufacturing and to advancing energy independence through American-made technology.
The company, founded in 2008, currently operates facilities in Turtle Creek, Pa., where it installed a new automated production line in 2024.
A loss for NJ
The exit to the Keystone State marks a blow for New Jersey, particularly in spaces such as energy, domestic manufacturing and battery technology.
Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro joined company executives and local officials to announce the relocation and expansion, calling it a major win for his state.

“The demand for energy is going up — and my Administration is capitalizing on Pennsylvania’s strengths as a national energy leader and net energy exporter to attract leading energy manufacturers like Eos Energy to the Commonwealth,” said Shapiro. “We’re doubling down on our efforts to aggressively compete for — and win — major projects like this one by cutting red tape, building out our skilled workforce, and investing in the next generation of energy technology.
“I’m proud that Pennsylvania will be home to Eos’ new global headquarters — and my Administration will continue to work to cut energy costs, create good-paying jobs, and position the Commonwealth to continue to be a national energy leader for decades to come,” Shapiro continued.
‘You can make things in America again’
Eos CEO Joe Mastrangelo said the expansion represents the next phase of the company’s growth strategy.
“Energy storage is the backbone of a modern energy system, and this significant milestone marks our progress to bring America’s battery to scale,” Mastrangelo said. “Through Project AMAZE, we’re proving that you can make things in America again by building world-class capacity, pairing advanced manufacturing with innovative software, and doing it here in Pennsylvania to ensure a more energy-efficient and secure future.”
Mastrangelo continued, “In today’s competitive environment, and in what we’re working to achieve in powering the nation’s future, you need not only natural resources and technology innovations, but also a strong public-private partnership. What we are announcing today is built upon a strong industrial history, combined with a world class university ecosystem. Pennsylvania is positioning itself at the forefront of America’s energy transition – enabling us to bring America’s battery to scale.”
As for what the phaseout of the Edison HQ will look like and the particulars about jobs, Eos did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
