European International Airport Orders Socomec Flywheel for UPS Energy Storage.CHATSWORTH, Calif. -- Pentadyne Power Corporation (www.pentadyne.com), the world's leading commercial manufacturer of clean energy storage systems using advanced composite flywheel technology, announced today that their European OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and distributor - UPS manufacturer Socomec (www.socomec.com) - had received an order for a Socomec VSS See Vcc. +DC flywheel system to be deployed at a major international European airport. Pentadyne is the original equipment manufacturer of the Socomec VSS+DC clean energy storage system. Socomec markets the VSS+DC internationally for use with their DELPHYS three-phase uninterruptible power supply See UPS. (hardware) Uninterruptible Power Supply - (UPS) A battery powered power supply unit that is guaranteed to provide power to a computer in the event of interruptions in the incoming mains electrical power. systems rated from 60 to 800 kVA. "Just a few weeks ago, we announced the commissioning of another Pentadyne-made flywheel at the San Jose International Airport For the Costa Rican airport, see . Norman Y. Mineta San Jose International Airport (IATA: SJC, ICAO: KSJC, FAA LID: SJC) is a medium-sized airport in San Jose, California. ," said Pentadyne President & CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization.

"So we are pleased to learn that the officials at this much larger airport also recognize the great reliability and cost-cutting enhancements of our clean energy storage systems." Pentadyne-made flywheel energy storage Flywheel Energy Storage (FES) works by accelerating a rotor (flywheel) to a very high speed and maintaining the energy in the system as rotational energy. The energy is converted back by slowing down the flywheel. systems are used as a supplement to increase the reliability of conventional UPS lead-acid battery banks, or to entirely eliminate them and their associated recurring costs, frequent maintenance issues, poor reliability and environmental impact. Last October, Socomec's combined DELPHYS UPS and flywheel power certainty solution was named the UPS Product Innovation of the Year by Frost & Sullivan, one of the world's leading business and industry analysis firms. Exhibiting, presenting at a Barcelona trade show tomorrow Socomec will be exhibiting its UPS and flywheel systems at the 9th International Electrical Power Quality & Utilisation Conference (www.epqu2007.com) being held tomorrow through October 11 in Barcelona. A representative of Socomec will present tomorrow at the conference on "Advances in energy-efficient, power quality and energy storage, and implications for utility grid frequency stabilization." About Pentadyne Power Corporation Hundreds of Pentadyne energy storage systems are operating as a part of battery-free UPS solutions at commercial, industrial, hospital and military facilities worldwide. The company's magnetically levitated carbon fiber flywheels are the world's most energy efficient, using 90% less power than other flywheels. Pentadyne systems deliver vastly higher long-term reliability and uptime availability at a fraction of the footprint, weight and cost of hazardous lead-acid UPS batteries.
