We build 24-volt, sodium-native power systems for ports, workboats, offshore platforms, autonomous marine assets, and other demanding maritime environments where safety, resilience, and reduced diesel dependence matter.
As sodium-ion emerges as a strategic American battery technology built on proven electrochemistry and abundant domestic materials, SALIS is focused on bringing that opportunity to working waterfronts, offshore operations, and coastal energy systems.
The Naeon Alpha is SALIS's core power module — a rugged, 24-volt sodium-ion unit that works as a standalone system or scales into a full marine energy installation. One module powers a vessel. Multiple modules serve a port, platform, or offshore operation. Every unit is built to the same standard: safe, cold-resilient, and ready for the working waterfront.
Chemistry engineered for thermal stability. No oxygen release on failure, no thermal runaway pathway. Designed for engine rooms and below-deck compartments where lithium creates unacceptable risk.
Roughly 70% capacity retained at 40 below zero, where lithium falls short. No heating systems, no management workarounds, no seasonal battery swaps required.
Built for cold-weather and harsh-environment operation, including charging and deployment scenarios that challenge conventional battery systems.
Engineered for continuous house loads, high-current marine demands, and structural slamming conditions through a ruggedized internal architecture.
Built without lithium, cobalt, or nickel — the materials that make lithium supply chains vulnerable. Sodium, iron, and hard carbon are among the most abundant materials on earth.
VE.Can, Victron, and NMEA 2000 compatible. Designed for workboats, fishing vessels, autonomous platforms, remote sensing buoys, and offshore infrastructure from the ground up.
Sodium-ion is gaining momentum as a strategic battery technology because it combines proven electrochemistry, abundant materials, and compatibility with existing manufacturing infrastructure.
For maritime applications, those advantages matter in practical ways: safer operation in confined spaces, reliable cold-weather performance, and a supply chain that does not depend on lithium, cobalt, or nickel.
SALIS is developing the Naeon Alpha as the maritime implementation of that opportunity — a rugged, scalable module purpose-built for working waterfronts, offshore operations, and coastal energy systems.
We are in the final stages of prototype development and moving toward our first vessel deployments. We are looking to partner with commercial operators, port stakeholders, and offshore innovators in the Pacific Northwest and Alaska.
