Power Quality at a Glance
- Nova Spin is a flywheel energy storage system that discharges power using inertia. This produces stable, high-quality electricity at proper frequency and voltage levels, solving a variety of issues for grid operators and C&I businesses.
- Nova Spin charges and discharges 10x faster than chemical batteries. It can be placed at main transmission, sub-transmission, and distribution levels, providing frequency and voltage support across the grid.
- Solar, wind, and chemical batteries are increasingly common across the utility grid, but they don’t produce electricity using inertia. Nova Spin pairs with these technologies and replaces synthetic inertia with true spin, increasing compatibility with existing infrastructure.
- For commercial and industrial businesses, power quality issues can damage equipment, increase electricity bills, and lead to unnecessary shutdowns. Nova Spin prevents these setbacks by filtering the electricity flowing to your building.
Solve the grid's most pressing problems
Nova Spin combines inertial-based storage with rapid discharging capabilities to provide much needed support to grid infrastructure.
Frequency & Voltage Support
When the grid experiences fluctuations in frequency or voltage, Nova Spin either absorbs excess energy or releases stored energy within milliseconds. This quick response time allows it to act as a buffer during demand surges.
Precise Power
Nova Spin releases power back to the grid at 60 Hz and +/- 1% of the necessary voltage level.
Resolve power quality issues at every level of the grid
- Main Transmission
Nova Spin can provide inertia to the power generated by large-scale solar, wind, and chemical battery installations.
- Sub-Transmission & Distribution
Strategically placing Nova Spin along sub-transmission and distribution lines creates a network of decentralized resources utility operators can use to address localized power quality issues.
- Behind The Meter
Torus systems can be installed behind the meter and integrated into VPP programs, resolving power quality issues at the point of consumption and expanding decentralized grid capacity.
Expand grid capacity quickly and securely
We provide a full-stack energy storage, management, cybersecurity, and O&M solution for utility providers. We focus on the sub-transmission and distribution level, supporting aging infrastructure and increasing capacity in tandem with main transmission projects.
Power your building with stable electricity
Nova Spin protects critical loads from unplanned outages, equipment damage, and bill increases caused by power quality issues.
Low Voltage Ride Through
Low voltage ride through prevents unnecessary equipment shutdowns due to brief voltage dips or grid disturbances.
Protect Your VFDs
Variable frequency drives (VFDs) used in critical manufacturing equipment can be especially sensitive to voltage drops, often powering off
