Santiago de Chile, May 25, 2026 — QiOn and Bluetek Global have joined together in a strategic partnership to deliver integrated energy solutions that span from physical infrastructure to intelligent operations management, giving industrial operators, infrastructure owners, and mining and facilities managers end-to-end control over their energy performance.
QiOn is a technology manufacturer of energy independence solutions, from Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and Energy Management Systems (EMS) to high-performance charging infrastructure, including Megawatt Charging System (MCS) solutions for heavy industrial and mining applications. QiOn engineers for resilience, cost control, and flexibility across industrial operators, infrastructure owners, and governments.
Bluetek Global, with a strong presence in the mining sector, operates a monitoring, automation, and energy management platform that addresses the collection, processing, and visualization of data to make better decisions in mining, manufacturing, distribution, and all facilities dependent on HVAC equipment. From IoT sensors for mining, databases, and industrial systems, Bluetek Cloud processes data, visualizes it, and builds a story that allows visibility and traceability of complex problems in a simple and scalable way.
A full-stack approach to mining energy
Together, the two companies address the full energy stack used in the mining sector to increase efficiency. QiOn contributes to the physical layer, handling energy storage, switchgear systems, DC-DC technology, and vehicle chargers controlled by a dispatch system using AI-driven energy flow, intelligent prediction, dynamic strategies, security, and grid interaction through its BESS, EMS, and charging systems. Bluetek contributes to the operational intelligence layer, monitoring facility-level energy consumption, automating decisions, and surfacing efficiency opportunities in real time.
The result is a solution capable of managing energy from the grid connection down to the individual piece of equipment, even in the most energy-intensive operations such as mining.
From QiOn
"Our mission is to provide operators true energy independence, whether that means storing energy, dispatching it at the right moment, or managing cost and resilience across their infrastructure. Bluetek adds a complementary layer of facility intelligence that allows operators to act on what is happening inside their buildings and processes in the same way they act on what is happening at the grid level. This partnership expands what our clients can see, control, and optimize."
Julio Sanchez Villavicencio, COO QiOn Latam
From Bluetek Global
"This partnership with QiOn reflects Bluetek's vision of integrating operational intelligence with energy infrastructure to manage energy end-to-end. For our clients, particularly in the mining sector, this translates into greater efficiency, resilience, and real-time cost optimization. QiOn brings a robust technological foundation that amplifies the impact of our platform. We share a clear vision: turning energy into a tangible competitive advantage. Together, we are setting a new standard for end-to-end energy management."

Momentum on both sides
This partnership arrives at a moment of clear momentum for both companies in the region. Bluetek Global has recently secured a landmark investment from AbastibleTec, the innovation and energy transition subsidiary of Abastible, one of Latin America's most influential energy conglomerates. The investment, which marks AbastibleTec's first-ever direct commitment to a startup, followed a pilot deployment that achieved 30% energy savings in HVAC operations — validating Bluetek's platform in exactly the high-consumption, data-intensive environments where this partnership is designed to perform. Bluetek has since been recognized by Forbes Centroamérica as one of the 20 most relevant AI companies in the Americas.
QiOn, recently awarded the 2026 Best European Battery Storage and EMS by Energy Tech Review, has an active project portfolio that spans the industrial and energy-intensive environments at the core of this collaboration. Current deployments include:
- An 800 MW project in North Queensland, Australia, serving a mining cluster with high energy requirements
- A 200 MW project in North Macedonia
- A commercial and industrial BESS deployment in Italy with CVA, a public energy group
- A first-of-its-kind 1,500 VDC DC-DC installation in Switzerland, representing the first direct generation-to-consumption system at that voltage in the country
All four projects are grid-scale or industrial-scale deployments, operating across multiple markets and reflecting QiOn's engineering reach in exactly the high-demand environments this partnership is designed to serve.
Why this matters now
For a region where mining services, industrial operations, and facilities management carry some of the highest and most variable energy loads in the world, the demand for integrated mining energy solutions has never been more acute. Industrial operators across Latin America face growing pressure to reduce energy costs, improve resilience, and demonstrate sustainability performance.
The combination of QiOn's BESS, EMS, and MCS infrastructure with Bluetek's operational intelligence gives them the tools to do all three — from the moment energy enters the site to the way it is consumed across every system and process.
