ESS Tech, Inc. is an early-stage long-duration energy storage company focused on iron flow batteries for grid and commercial applications. Its technology uses earth-abundant materials, targets up to 20,000 cycles without capacity fade, and is designed for safe, long-duration use in harsh temperatures.
The company remains deeply unprofitable. Revenue fell to $1.6 million in 2025 from $6.3 million in 2024, while net losses were $63.4 million in 2025 and $86.2 million in 2024, leading to an accumulated deficit of $845.8 million. Cash and cash equivalents plus short-term investments were $22.0 million as of December 31, 2025, and management discloses substantial doubt about ESS’s ability to continue as a going concern.
ESS highlights significant risks: early commercialization, manufacturing scale-up challenges, supply chain disruptions, strong competition from lithium-ion and other storage technologies, dependence on government incentives, and the need to raise additional capital. As of mid-2025, non‑affiliate equity market value was about $13.6 million, with 27,173,757 shares outstanding as of February 27, 2026.
