What can a Pentadyne system do for me?

Pentadyne clean energy storage has a lot of great attributes and advantages.

We've found that manufacturing facilities using our system particularly value these qualities:

  1. No HVAC needs - Pentadyne systems need no HVAC, perfect for manufacturing sites. UPS batteries need air conditioned space – and plenty of it – to offset their heat production. Operating batteries just 10°F above optimum cuts their life in half.
  2. Cost savings - Pentadyne own-and-operate costs are much lower than those of batteries. Over time, each Pentadyne system deployed saves $200,000 over VRLA batteries, even more if replacing wet cells.
  3. Highest availability, lowest maintenance - Steel flywheels incur hours of downtime and thousands in maintenance costs every 2-3 years. Rotary systems are even worse. But the Pentadyne system's only suggested downtime maintenance is for just one hour once every six years.

Other valuable attributes include:

  • Energy storage that's more effective and reliable
  • Half the footprint of VRLA batteries
  • 80% smaller footprint than wet cells
  • Virtually silent operation
  • 1/10th the energy consumption of other flywheels
  • No concrete pad needed or floor loading issues
  • Rolls into place and commissions in less than 60 minutes
  • No explosive gas emissions or hazardous materials
  • No acid vapors, spillage or other safety issues
  • Solid, non-"pro-rated" 5-year warranty, standard
  • Built in California: seismic zone 4 rated
  • Environmentally responsible, sustainable
