Our Vulcan energy system provides a continuous supply of clean power to protect critical infrastructure such as hospitals without the use of gas generators that produce dangerous emissions and require regular maintenance. Sensitive equipment, such as hospital grade electronic devices, require continuous clean power in order to function with no disruption to diagnosis and treatment services. Rapidly deployable power systems are needed to support communications, security, water filtration and refrigeration systems, as well as medical equipment. For field hospitals, new scalable solutions are needed to store, transport, and manage power in a way that is affordable and reliable
Shortcomings in the Current State of Technologies:
- Gas and diesel generators — noxious fumes, loud and heat-generating; requires significant fuel reserves, ongoing maintenance and long crank up times; increasing price of fossil fuels makes owning these systems even more costly
- Traditional UPS — operating reserves are for transition purposes and not continuous operation. Power output is limited to only a few minutes to keep data reliant systems operating
- Permanently installed batteries — complicated engineering, low power to weight ratio (SWAP constrained), easily damaged when depth of discharge is exceeded, low cycle life, high cost, and lack of mobility; requires frequent replacement and disposal
- Portable battery generators — typically made overseas; limited in capability and efficiency and cannot operate in austere environments; these devices are usually meant to only power small electronic devices for a short period of time
How Vulcan is Superior:
- AC power cutover is 10ms to ensure COOP, reduces standby energy consumption (5W @ 120V) and costs compared to inverter standby designs that consume 20% – 30% of the AC load
- Best-in-class technologies ensure higher battery efficiency, improved charging speeds, and reduced energy consumption
- Field portable and modular design allows for incrementally adding storage capacity up to 100 KWH at varying cost levels to meet budget and desired runtimes
- Modular, Integrated Energy Storage and Power architecture can support multiple mobile and forward operating applications at 120V/240V AC with built-in solar and AC chargers
- Ten (10) year recyclable lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries have a 5000+ discharge and charging lifecycle with a SOC of 80% after 10 years — less maintenance and disposal costs
- Environmentally friendly system produces no fumes, toxic emissions, or loud noise
- Expansion batteries are hot-swappable and can be added or removed without powering down equipment
- Units are fully recyclable and have upgradable system topologies with no throwaway components.
- Field maintainability means components can be repaired or replaced in the field if needed
- Can be used in line with diesel or gas generators as a hybrid solution to increase fuel reserves through shortened generator runtimes, which saves energy and reduces carbon emissions
- Wide environmental operating range for indoor or outdoor operation – rack or standalone and available with options for operating in austere environments
