Batteries Plus Powers Oklahoma’s Infrastructure with Cutting-Edge Battery Solutions

TL;DR

Batteries Plus is introducing rackmount lithium iron phosphate batteries to Oklahoma City to power its traffic light systems and is also partnering with emergency services and the University of Oklahoma to provide backup power solutions. The brand is expanding its capabilities into industrial battery banks to provide large-scale backup power solutions for cities and commercial infrastructure.

Powering infrastructure

The brand is introducing rackmount lithium iron phosphate batteries, a cutting-edge alternative to traditional lead-powered batteries, to Oklahoma City to power its traffic light systems. Currently being tested across the city, these batteries are at the forefront of backup power technology, with multitudes of units slated for installation across the country in the near future.

“Batteries Plus has been proud to partner directly with some of Oklahoma City’s most critical departments to provide reliable and state-of-the-art power solutions,” said Boozer. “By helping municipalities adopt the latest battery innovations, we’re not only improving reliability and efficiency, we’re also helping to strengthen the entire infrastructure that keeps these communities running.”

Emergency services support

Beyond traffic systems, Batteries Plus has become a trusted partner to Oklahoma’s emergency services, supplying two-way radio batteries and backup power to police departments, fire stations, and 911 dispatch centers across the state. They also supply backup power to each department’s IT infrastructures, which allows for the fast-acting first responders to provide emergency services quickly. Every officer and firefighter rely on multiple battery-powered devices and Boozer’s team ensures they have the power they need to serve the community.

Batteries Plus is also delivering power solutions to the University of Oklahoma’s extensive network of emergency exit lighting and door locks across its campus buildings and dormitories. These installations provide essential backup power in the event of outages, enhancing safety for students, staff, and visitors.

Industrial battery solutions

The brand’s capabilities have expanded further into industrial battery banks, a new initiative led by Boozer that positions Batteries Plus to provide large-scale backup power solutions for water departments, utility grids, and commercial infrastructure. The battery banks act as a bridge between grid outages and generator activation to supply continuous power in emergency situations. This initiative is being deployed in cities like Brownsville, Texas and will soon follow in Oklahoma.

“We’re proving that Batteries Plus is more than just a retail storefront for your personal vehicle and household; we’re a trusted and reliable source for power for millions of people at a time,” added Boozer. “Whether it’s traffic lights, emergency radios, or industrial battery banks, our teams have the expertise and infrastructure to deliver reliable power at any scale.”

As Batteries Plus continues to build its commercial and government partnerships across Oklahoma, the brand’s commitment to powering essential infrastructure and supporting local communities remains stronger than ever.
