Viridi, the industry leader in fail-safe battery energy storage systems (BESS), today announced that its products meet the current Foreign Entity of Concern (FEOC) requirements, as expanded under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) to apply across multiple clean energy tax credits. This confirmation makes Viridi among one of the few BESS providers whose systems are both American-made and fully eligible for federal incentives—while strengthening the security and resilience of the nation’s clean energy supply chain.

Manufactured in Buffalo, New York, Viridi’s proprietary fail-safe lithium-ion BESS features advanced anti-propagation technology that prevents thermal runaway from propagating between cells, setting a new benchmark for safety in commercial-scale storage. This unique design enables installation in an indoor environment–including existing, occupied buildings–where traditional lithium-ion systems cannot safely operate.

Viridi’s product portfolio already meets the Material Assistance Cost Ratio (MACR) threshold of 75% for 2030 and beyond, and complies with current FEOC sourcing rules, ensuring customers can capture full ITC benefits. “Our customers want safe, proven energy storage they can deploy today—without waiting for supply chains to catch up or worrying about compliance risks,” said Jon M. Williams, CEO of Viridi. “By manufacturing in the U.S. with a fully traceable, FEOC compliant supply chain, we’re delivering zero-emissions power that developers, building owners, and critical infrastructure operators can trust—backed by the incentives that make projects possible.”

Viridi’s compliance stems from a combination of domestic manufacturing, rigorous supplier vetting, ownership verification, and certification processes. “Compliance isn’t just a box to check– it reflects the disciplined supply chain management and strategic U.S. based manufacturing we’ve practiced from the beginning,” Williams added. “By manufacturing in the U.S. and embedding FEOC compliance into our operations, we’ve eliminated uncertainty for our customers and created a platform for safe, rapid deployment of clean energy projects nationwide.”  

With units in stock and ready to ship, Viridi removes the bottlenecks that can otherwise slow clean energy projects. Whether powering microgrids, critical infrastructure, mobile operations, or commercial facilities, Viridi delivers scalable, zero-emissions energy—without import delays or compliance concerns.
