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

We've found that utilities and energy industry entities particularly value these qualities:

1. Cost savings - POWERTHRU own-and-operate costs are much lower than those of batteries. Over time, each POWERTHRU system deployed saves $150,000 over VRLA batteries.
2. Solid reliability - Lead-acid batteries are the weakest link in any power continuity system. A POWERTHRU flywheel can replace batteries to provide much greater reliability, or, for redundant schemes, they can work in parallel with batteries. In the latter case, your POWERTHRU system is always the first line of defense, bridging the time gap to a smooth generator handoff and utterly eliminating any battery cycling.
3. Environmental responsibility/sustainability - Over its design life, each POWERTHRU flywheel you deploy will mitigate the mining, smelting, refining, transporting and eventual dumping of more than 15,000 pounds of virgin lead (UPS batteries never used recycled lead) and hundreds of gallons of sulfuric acid. Lead-acid battery emissions also contribute to global warming. POWERTHRU systems have no emissions.

Other valuable qualities include:

• Half the footprint of VRLA batteries
• 80% smaller footprint than wet cells
• Highest availability, lowest maintenance
• 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
