kW-set ePOD
– always safeguarding your datacenter
Between the grid and your datacenter is the ePOD – a complete electrical setup with UPS, batteries, switchgear, transformer, and integrated control and cooling systems in a compact package. Always ready to respond immediately to power outages, ePOD is safeguarding your continuous operation.
Uninterrupted power for critical loads
The ePOD is a modular power solution that brings together UPS systems, batteries, transformer, switchgear, and controls in a single container. Power flows continuously through the UPS, ensuring clean and stable electricity while keeping the batteries charged. In case of a grid failure, the UPS instantly supplies power from its batteries, and an external generator module can provide extended backup.
Modular power without compromises
One of the key advantages of the ePOD is its modular design, which makes it easy to increase data center capacity as demand grows compared to a traditional power room. The solution does not take up valuable indoor space but comes as a compact containerized unit. It also supports faster data center project delivery, as the ePOD can be delivered to site as a pre-tested plug-and-play system ready for integration.
Seamless integration
A greenfield site or expansion to an existing facility, kW-set ePOD integrates with your systems and connects to your infrastructure with standardized interfaces
Modular flexibility
The scalable modular structure supports your growth by adding multiple units as needed. Also, many aspects such as cooling, soundproofing and layout are customizable.
Nordic expertise
At kW-set, we are the local experts in Nordic conditions, regulations and project management. This ensures both technical endurance and compliance with the local rules.
Technical excellence
At kW-set, we utilize proven, advanced components from reputable suppliers. Our world-class design, integration and manufacturing are carried out by our highly skilled Nordic personnel.
Suitable for reserve market applications
The ePOD system is designed not only for critical backup power but also for participation in reserve markets. Its fast response capabilities, high reliability, and modular scalability make it ideal for frequency regulation, spinning reserve, and other ancillary services — adding value to your infrastructure investment.
