Norwegian Battery Manufacturer to Supply Cells to Major German Defence Company.
The contract follows a 12-month testing programme in which Morrow’s cells were benchmarked against established international manufacturers. Results confirmed that Norwegian-produced batteries meet stringent performance and reliability requirements for security-critical applications. The customer cannot be named due to confidentiality obligations.
“Our cells delivered consistently high performance throughout extensive evaluation, demonstrating the stability this sector demands,” says Morrow CEO Jon Fold von Bülow.
The initial delivery will support the customer’s product development and qualification programme.
Proven in the Nordic defence ecosystem
Morrow’s battery technology has been rigorously tested through its partnership with Nordic Batteries. The cells have been integrated into systems deployed during NATO exercises in Northern Norway, including at NATO’s Heimdal test arena, where industrial and military partners evaluate equipment under extreme Arctic conditions.
“Batteries are now mission-critical in defence systems and integral to operational capability, not just components. We require consistent, verifiable performance, and NATO exercises in the High North have proven that Morrow can deliver. Their cells provided the operational reliability, cold-weather performance, and field robustness essential for real-world deployment,” says Jarle Gjøsæther, CEO of Nordic Batteries.
Growing demand for European battery technology
European defence and industrial companies are placing increasing emphasis on supply-chain security and access to critical technology produced in Europe.
“Batteries have become a strategic component in both defence and critical infrastructure. This agreement reflects the growing need for European and Nordic production of battery cells that can deliver documented performance and security of supply,” says Jon.
