Frequently Asked Questions

A smart microgrid is a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources, powered by predictive intelligence to ensure resilient and reliable energy. It acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the grid, providing a sustainable and clean energy solution that is both cost-effective and capable of operating autonomously.

Microgrids offer significant benefits to industries like Oil and Gas, Mining, Water, Data Centres, Defence, Agriculture, and Manufacturing, providing them with technology that is resilient, reliable, and 100% off-grid with no fossil fuel required.

Predictive Intelligence leverages real-time data insights to optimize the supply and demand of clean energy with certainty, reliability, and security. It ensures 100% availability of solar power and can integrate with additional renewable energy sources, such as hydrogen and wind, without the need for fossil fuel backup.

The energy trilemma refers to the global energy sector’s challenge of providing energy that is simultaneously secure, affordable, and environmentally sustainable. 

Powerhouse sets itself apart as an AI-driven, industrial-scale clean energy microgrid, ensuring uninterrupted power availability. It adeptly navigates the energy trilemma, offering a comprehensive, end-to-end service that encompasses the design, fabrication, transportation, installation, and ongoing maintenance of custom units. This approach facilitates a smooth and sustainable energy transition, tailored to the unique requirements of each project.
