Legacy energy storage software gives operators dashboards and alerts. Electric Era uses an autonomy-first platform architecture that makes and executes smarter decisions faster. The result is up to 99.99% availability, better economics, and a platform that scales.
Electric Era’s integrated solution drives economic value and accelerates time to power — both underpinned by the ability to mitigate risk by delivering up to 99.99% power availability.
Most data centers treat oversubscription as a simple statistics problem. CoPower operates above the physical grid limit (without tripping NEC-mandated circuit protections). This allows data center operators to either mitigate risk with the same IT load, or keep the same risk profile and increase sellable IT load.
As more governing bodies roll out regulations around large load interconnections, data centers need flexible solutions to accelerate time to power. In ERCOT, for example, as a curtailable load resource (CLR), the data center’s full load doesn’t have to be curtailed; you can use appropriately-sized BESS to respond, when called by ERCOT, by discharging during specific windows.
Electric Era's software-defined approach means more flexibility and extensibility to rapidly meet new and changing flexible interconnection programs and accelerate time to power.
Legacy BESS solutions deliver supervisory systems to empower human observability and control with limited availability. Electric Era offers up to 99.99% guaranteed availability by deploying redundant capacity and delivering an autonomy-first platform (operations as a software problem) that is more scalable, more reliable, and makes smarter decisions faster.
For intermittent and dynamic power spikes driven by AI workloads, CoPower is the perfect complementary energy source for traditional and emerging sources of baseload energy.
