Accelerating access to power

We’re there when the grid can’t be.

Solving today’s toughest grid problems with elegant, integrated solutions

Critical Loop is a plug-and-play smart energy platform built to complement and extend the modern grid. At our core, we deliver megawatt-class, industrial-grade power systems that integrate batteries, renewables, backup generation, and, in the future, nuclear — all managed by a unified control system certified for grid interoperability. That means our customers get premium, high-quality power that adapts to their needs, whether they’re in dense cities or remote areas with limited infrastructure.

Engineered to provide power access for

Interconnection Delays

Grid expansions and upgrades take time. The Critical Loop offers integrated generation and storage to provide businesses and industrial sites with the power they need.

Resiliency

With available instantaneous transfer to high-quality backup power, Critical Loop provides the uninterruptible power military bases, hospitals, and data centers need to ensure operational continuity.

Mobile, Off-grid Power

Go where no grid has gone before. The Critical Loop is an autonomous micro-grid that provides EV charging stations and film productions with clean power and geographic freedom. Power-constrained sites as large as industrial facilities to as temporary as film production.

A universal power control system

With our combination of hardware and software, any power asset can plug into Critical Loop - generators, solar, mobile batteries, and more. They all work together as one flexible power solution.

Autonomous Power Management intro

Our software enables autonomous power management through an industrial computer installed at your site.
Using extensive telemetry, we monitor system data in real-time and ensure that you have access to the electrical power you need while the system seamlessly transitions between power sources for optimized operation.

Integration of Power Sources intro

We combine power sources with a smart electrical cabinet that can be easily integrated, and scaled, to the unique demands of your site.
The Combiner serves as a microgrid backbone at sites, standardizing integration of power sources. It is scalable to the unique needs of your facility, is managed by the Controller, and is easy to electrically connect.

Relocatable Power Capacity intro

Critical Loop’s fleet of relocatable megawatt scale batteries can be rapidly deployed to provide extra power capacity.
We deliver batteries that can be combined to suit your needs, with minimum bespoke engineering work and flexible lease arrangements.

Why Critical Loop

Energy Expertise

As a trusted, tech-first partner, we bring proven expertise in engineering, electrical systems, and permitting, with a strong track record in energy and aerospace. Critical Loop has successfully delivered complex deployments across multiple sectors.

Reliable and Scalable

We make reliable power available fast. Critical Loop’s plug-and-play system integrates multiple energy sources and uses real-time controls to keep power stable — even in remote locations or when the grid can’t keep up.

Partnering with Utilities

We work alongside utilities to close critical gaps in the grid. By orchestrating batteries, solar, generators, and eventually nuclear, Critical Loop ensures customers have dependable power exactly when and where they need it.

Case study

Critical Loop provides lifeline in wake of electrical fire

SITUATION

When extreme weather led to an electrical fire that took out critical utility infrastructure, one West Coast factory was forced to run their entire manufacturing facility on a diesel generator. After learning that the utility had no repair date planned, they reached out to Critical Loop for help.

SOLUTION

Critical Loop designed a temporary power solution that enabled the factory to run welders, CNC machines, and milling equipment that require stable power by pairing the factory’s existing generator with battery usage. On alternating days, the facility was powered by our >1MWh 500kW battery energy storage system. This allowed their diesel generator to run half as many production shifts while both powering their facility and charging the battery.

Since the generator is more efficient when operating at a higher load, the factory was able to get more energy per gallon of fuel while exposing workers to fewer emissions and less noise. And since the battery has a higher capacity than the factory’s generator, the facility was able to increase their load by a factor of two and ramp up production—without being connected to the grid at all.

Building a bold new future. Again.

Brought to you by engineers from SpaceX, Palantir, and Tesla, Critical Loop was created to keep America up and running. Born from the simple idea that reliable power should be easy to get, Critical Loop taps into the same minds that put rockets into space, military operations into action, and electric cars onto the road in order to bridge gaps in the electric grid all across the nation.
