* Nextec Energy System Applications Summary

Emergency Backup
 

On-grid the Nextec Regeneration System can function as a UPS (uninterrupted power supply). In this application the device provides backup power in the event of a power failure. Current (non-Nextec) UPS devices can only offer minutes of backup power. No other UPS system in the world can offer the amount of uninterrupted backup time that the Nextec system can.  Our inverter is 98% efficient. 
 
Energy Savings
 

On-grid - In this application the device functions on-grid to create significant energy savings. The device allows the user to use grid power for as little as 3 hours a day and then uses its backup power potential to take the user off the grid for as long as 21 hours a day.  Energy savings in this application are dependent on your load size and the ampere hours of your batteries.
 

Solar - Because of the high price of solar panels most solar users are only able to account for about 20-35% of their consumption needs from their solar array. This means that the other 80-65% of their electricity is still provided by the utility company. The Nextec Regeneration System is the only cost effective way to use solar panels to achieve 100% off-grid electricity. Alternatively, the Nextec system can also be used to increase the output of a solar array by utilizing reactive energy. In this application the Nextec Regeneration System reduces the number of solar panels needed and creates significant savings in solar panel purchases.  (READ MORE)

 

Wind - Today, nearly all wind generation is through the use of synchronous turbines. This means that the turbine speed is “in sync” with the grid in terms of frequency fluctuation. This is a necessity because frequency variation causes the grid connected to the turbine to overload and fail. Because of this wind speeds have been divided into two categories, VMI and VMA. VMI refers to all wind below a speed where it can be used. If the wind speed is below VMI the turbine must receive power from the grid to be synchronized. This means that the turbine is actually consuming power, rather than generating it. VMA refers to all wind above a speed where it can be used. If the wind speed is above VMA the turbine must be slowed down to achieve synchronization. This means that all wind above this speed is not used and is wasted. The Nextec Regeneration System controls the frequency variations so that asynchronous turbines can be used. This eliminates the need for a VMI and VMA value. In effect 50% more wind can be used because of this, compared to a conventional inverter. In addition to this, the Nextec system utilizes reactive energy to increase the output of the turbine. In this way the Nextec Regeneration System more that doubles the output of a synchronous turbine, and makes wind a viable replacement for fossil fuel based generation sources such as coal and oil.

Generator -When used with a diesel or other fuel type generator the Nextec Regeneration System is able to save between 30% and 85% of the fuel that would be required for normal operation depending on your load size.   A generator using Nextec technology only needs to be run for approximately 3 hours a day to produce 24 hours of power. This not only saves fuel, but also reduces maintenance costs associated with normal generator usage, and extends the life of a generator by a factor of about 4-6 times the generators normal life expectancy.  For most users the reduced maintenance costs associated with de-carbonization, oil and filter changes, and manpower needed to perform those tasks, provide cost savings that parallel the fuel savings they experience.  Additionally, because the generator runs for many fewer hours a day, carbon emissions are dramatically reduced.  In certain applications in which emissions are regulated by the EPA or other entity, the use of the Nextec Regeneration System may bring a generator that could not normally be approved into regulatory compliance.

This System is currently installed throughout the rest of the world but we have just received our UL 1741 approval in May 2009 and are just now able to introduce the System to the US Market.  We are in the process of rolling out our products initially in Texas and New York. With the sales, installation and maintenance side of this business we will create 1,000’s of jobs and billions in savings for building owners
