2006 Hurricane Predictions |
| "We
continue to foresee another very active Atlantic basin tropical cyclone season
in 2006. Landfall probabilities for
the 2006 hurricane season are well above their long-period averages."

 Power
Outages Have Already Affected You
| |
Killer
hurricanes, devastating tornados, torrential rain, wicked ice storms, and blinding
blizzards...
these forces of nature have taken out your
electricity sources
for hours, days,
even months. |
...and
They Are Here To Stay |
| Power
outages have happened before and they will happen again. Prepare for the disaster
and aftermath now. Protect yourself against both unexpected and scheduled power
outages with a Gaia PowerTower™ for Backup system.
|
| Designed
for residential use as well as for small-to-medium businesses, the Gaia PowerTower
for Backup is an advanced battery-based uninterruptible power system that is: |
- compact
-
always on
- quiet
-
reliable
| |
| Gaia's
standard unit can power a 2000 sq. ft house long enough to get through 95% of
all power outages. For larger houses or when longer backup time is required, the
unit's modular design makes it easy to add battery or power modules, ensuring
a custom backup power solution that is right for any sized home or business. In
any configuration, the Gaia PowerTower for Backup is easily installed by an electrician,
and requires no special mounting, wiring, or digging. |

Power Tower for BackupThe
PowerTower for Backup is Gaia's most standard unit, and it provides the reliability,
ease of installation and affordability that makes it the best solution in backup
power protection.
The unit can be sized to provide from 2.5kW to 16.5kW
of continuous power with as much energy storage as needed in order to power circuits
through any power event. Larger systems for larger businesses are also available.
All Backup units arrive ready to accept the grid as well as any future alternative
power sources such as solar cells, and all Backup units accept power input from
generators of any size, making it easy to charge the batteries for outages of
several days or more.
The PowerTower for Backup is compatible with a
wide range of electrical service, from 60A to 300A+ and can be configured for
either 120V or 240V output. 3-phase power models are also available. 
Power
Tower for Demand ReductionThe PowerTower
provides a level of sustained demand reduction that makes a difference in a business'
s electric bill. The unit is designed to meet the bill reduction needs of small
to mid-sized businesses or light industrial sites.
Using a PowerTower
for Demand Reduction requires no change in behavior by employees; neither does
it restrict the use of any equipment or machinery.
The unit can be installed
by any licensed electrician, and can be placed in any convenient location. |

As primary and supplementary
power alternatives to the electric grid proliferate, Gaia's PowerTower for APS
provides automatic backup power and power quality enhancement to any alternative
power source, including solar cells, fuel cells,wind turbines, and generators.
The unit comes with all balance-of-system components and can be installed
by any licensed electrician. Two DC and one AC power inputs are standard, and
the control module automatically reconciles and synchronizes power to deliver
it to the needed circuits.
The unit can be delivered partially or fully
assembled and all components are fully tested in all configurations. `
Measurement and monitoring capability is also standard on all APS units, and the
units can be monitored and controlled individually or in aggregate.
Technology Gaia
Power Technologies focuses on addressing deficiencies in the current power landscape
by utilizing applications of energy storage. Based on a clear understanding of
how to manage energy storage and the components that make it viable (such as inverters).
Gaia’s core technological platform supports products that address a range
of inefficiently or insufficiently served power markets. Ranging from pure backup
power to backup hybrid systems to demand reduction devices, these energy management
systems are, in every sense, turn-key, modular, and scalable, and they incorporate
the best-of-breed in existing technology.
The MSPS Approach
Gaia’s core, patent-pending technology establishes a Modular Stationary Power
Supply (MSPS). The MSPS efficiently and pragmatically integrates all balance-of-system
components on a single platform and in a single unit. The result is that energy
storage, power electronics, communication and control are all seamlessly integrated
into a single turn-key, pre-assembled, and fully tested unit.
This
approach results in a tremendously flexible unit that:
1) Requires no
energy storage expertise by the end purchaser.
2) Fits the exact scale
both in continuous power and energy storage required by the customer.
3) Installs easily
4) Enhances existing power sources
5) Integrates any
future power sources
6) Enables truly distributed generation
7) Operates
individually or in a network of multiple units, locally or remotely
In
the end, MSPS allows for the benefits of energy storage to be directly applied
to problems that can benefit from it.
The MSPS Difference
For individual residences or businesses, Gaia’s products can provide backup
power, lower electric bills, and enable the deployment of alternative power sources.
There are also clear benefits to Gaia’s approach for the entire electrical system.
Gaia’s product line enables a distributed power network and addresses the
needs of an entire segment of electrical consumers who to date have been overlooked:
small to mid-sized businesses, and tenants within buildings.
Additionally,
not only do the PowerTower units themselves provide stability and efficiency for
the grid, they also enable the practical deployment of a wide variety of power
source alternatives, from lightweight, inexpensive generators to solar cells and
fuel cells. The net environmental impact of both of these benefits is tremendous.
Like many technological shifts, the change that is taking place in the electrical
infrastructure is happening on an individual level; it is composed of many local
steps that add up, in the end, to a giant leap forward. Gaia’s MSPS core technology
is stretching those steps and lengthening that leap. |
