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

We've found that hospitals using our system particularly value these qualities to protect cath lab, CT, MRI and other uninterruptible patient care equipment:

1. Minimal footprint - Compared to a 5-min. VRLA battery cabinet, a comparable capacity POWERTHRU flywheel needs only half the floorspace (or 1/5th that of wet cells).
2. Elimination of batteries - Medical imaging and treatment systems are particularly tough on UPS batteries due to very brief, but very steep and frequent inrush needs that most UPS rectifiers can’t keep up with. Flywheels handle these inrush needs with aplomb and without degradation.
3. Health & safety issues - Lead-acid batteries emit toxic and explosive gases, as well as pose additional risks related to sulfuric acid leakage, hazardous materials handling and pose a fire risk. POWERTHRU  flywheels pose no such health and safety risks, nor do they contain any hazardous materials.
4. 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.

Other valuable attributes include:

• 1/10th the energy consumption of other flywheels
• No concrete pad needs
• No floor loading issues
• Rolls into place and commissions in less than 60 minutes
• Environmentally responsible/sustainable
• Built in Michigan: seismic zone 4 rated
