Form Energy

Form Energy is a long-duration energy storage company headquartered in Somerville, Massachusetts and Weirton, West Virginia. Its flagship product is an iron-air battery designed to store electricity for up to 100 hours, intended to enable utilities and grid operators to firm renewable generation across multi-day weather events, replace aging fossil-fueled peakers, and defer transmission and distribution upgrades. The company manufactures its battery at Form Factory 1, a 550,000-square-foot facility built on the former Weirton Steel mill site that employs roughly 400 people. Form Energy also publishes Formware, a grid-modeling software suite used by utilities to plan resource portfolios that include multi-day storage. Notable customers and partners include Georgia Power, Xcel Energy, Great River Energy, Dominion Energy, PG&E, New York Power Authority, and Crusoe Energy (a 12 GWh agreement to firm power for AI data centers). Form Energy does not currently publish a public developer API or SDK; engagement is through utility sales, partnership, and policy channels.

Form Energy is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Energy Storage, Long Duration Energy Storage, Iron-Air Battery, Battery Storage, and Grid Reliability.

Form Energy’s developer surface includes YouTube channel, engineering blog, and 19 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Energy & Utilities regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/form-energy: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
