Rated at 500kW
Modular units serve typical commercial loads and expand to support utility-scale multi-megawatt systems
Ultimate flexibility
Control and blend power flows between AC or DC sources and loads 18,000 times per second, bidirectionally, at voltages from 120V to 1,000V
Small Footprint
GridBlock cuts space requirements by up to 70% compared with traditional single-function hardware
Plug and play
Simple integration of solar, batteries, EV chargers, fuel cells and backup generators — no additional inverters needed
Future proof
Software control and over-the-air updates allow infrastructure to adapt as standards and grid demands change
Manufactured in the US in partnership with Jabil and PowerSecure with patented technology developed at Georgia Tech Center for Distributed Energy
GridBlock makes microgrid-based EV charging easy, affordable and scalable. Each Energy Router supports up to 16 chargers, Level 2 or Level 3, at the same time. Multiple Energy Routers can scale to support multi-megawatt EV truck loads.
