Ride-through
The site stays connected through voltage and frequency disturbances and returns to its draw when the grid recovers.
ONE CONTROL LAYER BETWEEN THE LOAD AND THE GRID
AI data centers.
Training clusters can swing tens of percent of facility load in under a second. The Battalion EMS and its controllers coordinate the site's battery, UPS and generation equipment to solve four problems, in this order.
Interconnection and ride-through.
Grid operators require large loads to stay connected through voltage and frequency disturbances. Our controls keep the site connected and bring its draw back once the voltage returns, in line with ride-through rules such as ERCOT NOGRR 282.
Load pulses and oscillations.
The EMS has the battery meet each swing at the feeder, so the grid sees the slow average.
Ramp rate and generator protection.
Training starts and stops reach the grid, and on-site generators, at a rate they can follow.
Backup power.
On a loss of supply the EMS coordinates the battery, UPS and generators so the load stays powered. Capacity above the reserve lowers energy cost and demand charges.
Battalion is hardware agnostic. The platform works with battery, converter and UPS equipment from leading vendors, and runs both parallel and dual-conversion medium-voltage UPS configurations.
AI data center solution Why your AI data center needs a batteryA CONNECTED ENERGY PROJECT Coordinated by Battalion
Power smoothing
AI training load pulses are met at the feeder, so the grid and on-site generators see a steady load.
Ramp rate control
Training starts and stops reach the grid at a rate the interconnection agreement allows.
Backup power, islanding and black start
When the grid is lost, the load stays powered. The site forms its own grid, runs on its own sources and reconnects in a controlled sequence.
Generator coordination
Gas turbines, engines and the battery share the load within each machine's limits.

Battalion was founded by people who had spent their careers in energy storage, utility software, remote monitoring, and automation and controls. We operated enough battery systems, and worked around enough of the EMS products on the market, to know what they got wrong, so we built our own from the ground up. Customers tell us the platform is exceptional.
