EMROD in action

Utility companies have a long-standing need to improve energy distribution to service remote areas where power line technology is too expensive to lay and maintain. This existing challenge is being amplified with the need to scale up grid infrastructure and distribute grid points more widely to meet industry electrification and renewable energy needs.

EMROD's power-beaming system is a solution to enable grid scalability, flexibility, and resilience by reducing much of the physical infrastructure required to establish and maintain an energy grid system.

EMROD’s core power-beaming technology is a central component of space-based energy infrastructure, including space-based solar power.

Energy sourced from wind and solar is expected to triple in order to meet global Net Zero targets.  Wind and solar projects are usually best located in remote locations, which are more challenging and expensive to connect to the grid.

EMROD’s power-beaming system provides a solution to send power across challenging terrain without having to lay and maintain powerlines or underwater cables.

Cell towers require power, which is normally sourced from utility supplies, or by generators which require regular fuel replacement. Making the connection from the utility point of supply to the cellular base station can be expensive, and in some cases not possible. Replacing generator fuel regularly is a time consuming and costly exercise.

EMROD’s system provides a wireless point-to-point connection between the utility point of supply and the base station.

EMROD’s power-beaming system can be quickly deployed to supply power to disaster-stricken areas, bringing them back online faster and without requiring diesel generators.
