Fluence Energy faces an investigation by shareholders rights firm Hagens Berman following a 15% share price drop on 17 September 2026. The company revealed ongoing problems at its Houston manufacturing facility and announced it had terminated its Chief Product Officer on 11 September. The investigation examines whether Fluence was sufficiently transparent about operational issues at the facility, which produces thermal management systems for battery energy storage solutions. The company slashed its 2026 revenue guidance by $600 million, attributing over 80% of the decrease to US production issues. Management disclosed problems with the facility's automated welding process and revealed it had switched to manual welding. The Houston facility was previously described as "fully automated" during an August earnings call. The share price had initially risen 10% when the facility expansion was announced in August 2025.
Welding problems at US plant force Fluence to cut revenue forecast by $600m. 22 Sep 2026 Battery energy storage system integrator Fluence Energy has cut its 2026 revenue forecast by $600 million after automated welding problems disrupted production at a contract manufacturing facility in Houston, Texas. The Nasdaq-listed company now expects revenue of about $2.4 billion, down from its previous guidance midpoint of $3 billion. Its forecast adjusted EBITDA loss has widened from approximately $10 million to $200 million. Fluence said more than 80% of the anticipated revenue reduction was attributable to US production problems, principally delays in ramping up the Houston facility. The plant, operated in partnership with equipment manufacturer Bergstrom, produces thermal-management systems, including heating, ventilation and air-conditioning and chiller equipment, for Fluence's Gridstack Pro battery energy storage systems. Fluence CEO Julian Nebreda told investors the company had underestimated the complexity of ramping up production. A customised automated welding process was operating significantly below its target, while final assembly was being constrained by a shortage of skilled labour. Production averaged fewer than one unit per day during August, compared with the 11 units per day assumed in the company's previous guidance. Output increased to an average of three units per day during the first two weeks of September. The contract manufacturer has temporarily moved to manual welding, recruited additional skilled workers and engaged three subcontractors in the Houston area to increase welding and assembly capacity. Fluence estimated these measures would add $25 million to costs. Nebreda said the automated welding system was still being trained to weld the company's Gridstack Pro 5000 equipment. A plan for delivering Fluence's 2027 backlog had been prepared on the assumption that manual welding might continue, although it would be slower and more expensive. The company has $2.9 billion of backlog scheduled for 2027, of which $1.2 billion requires US production. The Houston plant has also not yet been connected to the electricity grid. Fluence said generators had been installed and power availability was no longer constraining output. Grid connection is expected in the first quarter of its 2027 financial year. Nebreda said the delay in introducing manual welding had accounted for most of a roughly $1 billion shortfall against Fluence's earlier annual revenue expectations. "That is clearly not a resilient plan," he said, adding that Fluence would seek to reduce its dependence on individual suppliers and manufacturing processes. Fluence announced the start of production at the Houston facility in August 2025, describing it as an important part of its strategy to establish a domestic US supply chain for every major component of a grid-scale BESS. Law firm Hagens Berman has since opened an investigation into whether Fluence adequately disclosed the facility's operational readiness and potential financial effect. The announcement concerns a preliminary investigation and does not establish that Fluence or its executives violated securities law. Fluence shares fell $1.39, or 15.4%, from $9.05 to $7.66 following the revised guidance. The company also terminated chief product officer Peter Williams on 11 September and appointed former AES executive Bernerd Da Santos as chief operating officer. Da Santos will oversee product, supply chain, manufacturing, customer success and enterprise operations.
ES | 206gwh! EVE Energy and Fluence sign long-term storage cell supply framework. PVTIME - EVE Power, a wholly owned subsidiary of EVE Energy (SHE: 300014), has entered into a long-term framework agreement with global battery storage integrator Fluence Energy to supply energy storage cells for the period from 2027 to 2031. The framework covers a total volume of 206 GWh. Of this, 16GWh represents firm, committed cell supply for 2027, while the remaining 190GWh is reserved production capacity to support Fluence's North American BESS project pipeline. This reserved capacity does not constitute firm orders, and the final pricing, specifications and delivery timelines will be confirmed via subsequent purchase contracts. This new arrangement extends the existing supply partnership between EVE Energy and Fluence. The supply agreement coincides with Fluence's updated full-year financial guidance for 2026, released on 18 September. The company downgraded its revenue and adjusted EBITDA outlook, primarily due to construction delays and early-stage quality issues at its Texas manufacturing facility, which have slowed system deliveries. Despite these operational setbacks, Fluence retains a robust order backlog of US$6.4 billion.

Lead plaintiffs are typically investors with the largest documented losses. Contacting the firm during the investigation phase preserves that option. Q: What if I already sold my FLNC shares - can I still recover losses?A: Yes. Eligibility is based on when you purchased, not whether you still hold the shares. Investors who bought FLNC and sold at a loss may still participate in the investigation. Q: Do I need to go to court or give testimony?A: No. Participating in the investigation does not require court appearances or depositions. If legal action is later pursued, the overwhelming majority of affected investors never appear in court either. Q: What does it cost me to participate?A: There is no upfront cost to submit your information and review whether you may be eligible to recover. Should you choose to participate in any resulting action, these matters are generally handled on a contingency basis, with any attorneys' fees and expenses subject to court approval.

EVE Energy signs 206 GWh battery framework with storage supplier Fluence. The five-year agreement includes 16 GWh of committed deliveries for 2027 and 190 GWh of reserved capacity thereafter. Sep 18 2026 Chinese battery manufacturer EVE Energy has signed a framework agreement with U.S.-based energy storage supplier Fluence covering up to 206 GWh of battery deliveries between 2027 and 2031. EVE Energy said in a stock exchange filing that its subsidiary Hubei EVE Power signed the agreement with Fluence Energy Global Production Operation, LLC following earlier cooperation between the companies. The parties agreed on a committed delivery volume of 16 GWh for 2027, with a further 190 GWh of capacity reserved for 2028 through 2031. According to EVE Energy, the agreement is a framework arrangement and specific product specifications, quantities, prices, delivery schedules and quality requirements will be determined through subsequent purchase orders. The company also warned that changes in industry policy, market conditions or other unforeseen factors could affect implementation. The committed and reserved volumes apply across all product types, models and configurations purchased by Fluence from EVE Power or its affiliates, with deliveries counted against the agreed volumes on a GWh-equivalent basis. EVE did not disclose the battery chemistry, cell format, manufacturing location, contract value or destination markets. EVE Energy is one of China's largest lithium-ion battery manufacturers. It shipped 44.46 GWh of energy storage batteries in the first half of 2026, up 54.9% year on year, alongside 35.76 GWh of power batteries. Fluence was launched by Siemens and U.S. utility group AES in 2018 and is listed on Nasdaq. The company supplies grid-scale storage systems, services and optimization software. As of June 30, it had deployed 19.3 GWh of energy storage systems and reported 12.6 GW of contracted storage backlog. The agreement comes with execution risks on both sides. Fluence disclosed in August that it had incurred about $15 million in upfront costs associated with a planned long-term international battery supply agreement. On Sept. 16, two days before EVE's filing, Fluence cut its fiscal 2026 revenue guidance from around $3 billion to approximately $2.4 billion, citing continuing production delays and supply-chain problems at its U.S. contract manufacturing operations. The EVE-Fluence agreement extends the existing pattern of cooperation between Chinese battery manufacturers and U.S. storage integrators. EVE previously signed battery supply arrangements with U.S.-based Powin and American Battery Solutions/AESI, including a 19.5 GWh framework with AESI that EVE said remains under implementation. Separately, Chinese battery manufacturer REPT Battero is supplying 3 GWh of storage systems to U.S.-based Energy Vault during 2026 under an agreement signed in September 2025. Such cross-border supply relationships are becoming more complex as U.S. tariffs, localization requirements and foreign-entity restrictions reshape battery sourcing. For the EVE-Fluence agreement, the eventual commercial significance will therefore depend less on the headline 206 GWh figure than on how much of the reserved capacity converts into binding purchase orders over the next five years.
