When 71% of our planet is covered in saltwater, shouldn’t our energy storage come from it? Salty Marine Batteries believes the next leap in power is literally oceans deep. By using abundant sodium from saltwater instead of scarce lithium, we’re creating a safer, more sustainable battery for a world that runs on energy.
Every person on Earth is touched by energy – from the lights in our homes to the engines that move us – so making energy storage safe, sustainable, isn’t just smart business, it’s a global mission.
Our salt-based sodium batteries are inherently
more stable, virtually eliminating fire risks.

While lithium-ion batteries admirably sparked the mobile revolution and put EVs on the road, their inherent limits in safety, resource scarcity, and supply chain bottlenecks are becoming undeniable.
The solution has arrived....
Salty Marine's proprietary Turbo-Boost Sodium-Ion innovation isn't just an incremental improvement; it's a monumental leap designed to fundamentally redefine energy storage. By engineering a battery that decisively shatters traditional trade-offs, we consistently outperform where it truly matters—delivering unwavering power through 95% of its discharge, enabling ultra-fast charging in as little as 15 minutes, and ensuring exceptional durability that outlasts typical lithium cells.
Energy storage is a universal challenge, crucial for everything from powering remote communities to
ensuring luxury experiences at sea. What if the key to truly smart, reliable energy could be
drawn from Earth’s most abundant resource – saltwater?
At Salty Marine Batteries, we believe the sodium within the oceans holds that secret, poised to
deliver a common-sense breakthrough beneficial to any industry or nation.
Energy storage is a universal challenge, crucial for everything from powering remote communities to ensuring luxury experiences at sea. What if the key to truly smart, reliable energy could be
drawn from Earth’s most abundant resource – saltwater?
At Salty Marine Batteries, we believe the sodium within the oceans holds that secret, poised to deliver a common-sense breakthrough beneficial to any industry or nation.
Our story begins with founder Jake Stratmann, a hands-on marine mechanic. For decades, Jake honed his skills in engine rooms, troubleshooting power systems on everything from gas outboards to massive diesel engines. Working with luxury yachts and other vessels, he intimately understood the unique challenges of harsh marine environments, where critical systems like Seakeeper stabilization, air conditioning, and Humphree All Speed fins demand power.
Jake constantly witnessed the frustrating limitations of traditional batteries—from unreliable lead-acid to early lithium systems—leading to failed outings and compromised experiences on the water. This firsthand frustration sparked a profound realization: smarter, simpler, safer solutions always prevail. That hard-earned insight ultimately led him to the next logical step: building a better, more reliable battery.
His journey from turning wrenches to pioneering sodium-ion technology isn't just a career path; it's a mission
to make energy smarter, safer, and more reliable for everyone, everywhere.
The potential of sodium-ion battery technology isn't entirely new; researchers explored it alongside lithium in the 1960s.
While lithium was then favored for its early energy density, sodium—despite its inherent abundance—was largely
left on the shelf. Salty Marine Batteries has now meticulously refined and advanced this overlooked potential,
transforming an historical footnote into a global solution.
Our proprietary Turbo-Boost™ Sodium-Ion chemistry fundamentally flips the script, delivering performance features lithium
simply can't match. Imagine consistent voltage output—no steep power drop-offs as the battery discharges.
Picture the ability to fully discharge to 0% state-of-charge without damage, and inherent safety that leaves
lithium-ion in the dust. In plain terms, our batteries deliver steady power until the very end, bounce back from
being completely drained, and won't catch fire. This combination of robust, forgiving, and smart power was
simply unachievable with legacy lithium technology.
By taking the best performance aspects of previous technologies and merging them with saltwater's inherent safety and abundance,
Salty Marine Batteries has created a truly robust, forgiving, and high-performance energy storage solution
that's ready for any demanding real-world duty. This journey from problem recognition to pioneering
a practical, powerful new technology defines the core of who we are.

When we claim our batteries are safe, durable, and powerful, we’re not just asking you to take our word for it – we let the toughest critics test them. Salty Marine Batteries has been working closely with the U.S. Department of Defense community to validate our technology in the most demanding settings:
U.S. Navy Testing (NAWCAD & ONR): Our batteries are undergoing evaluation with the U.S. Navy’s Naval Air Warfare Center (NAWCAD) and related Navy labs. Early prototype units have been delivered for field testing at NAWCAD facilities, where they are proving their performance in real maritime environments.
The Office of Naval Research (ONR) has also shown interest, as the Navy seeks safer, more resilient power for ships and autonomous vehicles. Achieving Navy-grade standards (like MIL-STD safety and shock certifications) is a core milestone for us – and we’re well on our way. Military validation means our technology can handle extreme conditions of combat and sea, giving confidence that it can handle anything in civilian life.
While initially engineered for the rigorous marine environment, the broader application of our sodium-ion energy storage is experiencing rapid growth across diverse, high-demand sectors:
Transitioning to safer, sustainable, and reliable non-lithium battery solutions for critical applications.
Growing need for safer, sustainable off-grid energy storage.
Increasing adoption of safer, cost-effective alternatives to lithium-ion for home energy independence.
Rapidly evolving from traditional lead-acid to advanced battery solutions for improved range, performance, and reduced maintenance.
These expanding markets clearly demonstrate the scalable potential and broader commercial viability of
our sodium-ion technology, far beyond our marine origins.
Salty Marine Batteries isn’t chasing lab specs—
we’re building a battery that works where it matters most: in the real world.
Powered by abundant, non-toxic sodium from seawater, our Turbo Boost batteries deliver over
90% of their energy above 12 volts—more than double the usable capacity of standard AGM or
regular sodium-ion options. Lab tests show up to 360% more usable energy than premium AGM,
all while avoiding the voltage drop-offs that shorten battery life in traditional systems.
Unlike lithium or AGM batteries, which risk damage below 10 volts, our battery stays stable and safe—even
when fully drained. That means consistent power, safer performance, and a longer lifespan—at a lower cost
than LFP, lithium-ion, or AGM systems.
