Overview

Pentadyne Power Corporation designs, manufactures and markets advanced flywheel power systems that provide ride-through power and voltage stabilization for power quality and power recycling applications. Designed to provide high power output and energy storage in a compact, self contained package, Pentadyne flywheel products are a long lasting, low maintenance, lightweight, and environmentally sound alternative to lead-acid batteries.

The company shipped its first commercial production flywheel in 2004, and has sold and shipped more than 500 more since then.

The company's products are primarily sold by several of the world's leading manufacturers of uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, among them Emerson Network Power (as the Liebert FS), Toshiba (as the Pentadyne VSS+DC) and, overseas, Socomec (as the Socomec VSS+ DC). The company also has multiyear direct supply agreement with a Department of Defense contractor for the purchase of more than 500 Pentadyne flywheel systems.
