In critical power environments, the Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is the last line of defense. It’s there to ensure continuity during outages and protect sensitive equipment from voltage fluctuations. But what happens when the UPS itself fails? The answer is costly downtime, damaged reputations, and in some cases, even compromised safety. Here are three (anonymous) […]

In today’s technology-driven world, organizations heavily rely on critical power systems to ensure uninterrupted operations and protect sensitive equipment. Managing the power load and effectively sizing and planning capacity for critical power infrastructure is essential to maintain system reliability, prevent downtime, and optimize energy efficiency. In this article, we will explore the key considerations and […]
A UPS, or Uninterruptible Power Supply, is an electrical device that provides backup power to connected devices or systems in the event of a power outage or voltage fluctuations. It serves as a safeguard against power disruptions and ensures the uninterrupted operation of critical equipment, protecting them from potential damage or data loss. The primary […]
Lithium-ion batteries have had significant implications for the lead-acid battery industry. Here are some key points to consider: Higher energy density: Lithium-ion batteries have a much higher energy density compared to lead-acid batteries. This means they can store more energy in a smaller and lighter package. This advantage has made lithium-ion batteries particularly popular for […]
Lead-acid batteries have traditionally been the preferred choice for critical power applications due to their reliability, cost-effectiveness, and robustness. Here are some factors to consider when comparing lead-acid batteries to lithium-ion batteries for critical power applications: Reliability: Lead-acid batteries are known for their robustness and long track record of reliable performance. They have been used […]
We recently completed a complex job in Georgia for a customer with data center sites across the nation. Our Senior Project Engineer, Dave Mortimer and team worked to engineer a custom solution to utilize existing battery strings – saving the customer money and eliminating risk by replacing failing strings. There were many moving parts, locations. […]
