PRAGMATIC APPROACH TO CLEAN ENERGY
Safe, Affordable, Reliable, Equitable
With industry at an inflection point moving from reliance on fossil fuels to embracing renewables, our clean hybrid approach bridges strengths and advantages of both.
If variable, intermittent renewables are to eventually become dominant resources and maintain reliability nightly and during extreme weather events, both generation and storage must be economically sustainable for asset owners, utilities, service providers, and customers.
Pintail Power offers patented and proprietary energy storage and related technologies with superior cost, performance, scalability, reliability, lifetime, siting, and environmental characteristics. We achieve these advantages by hybrid integration of low-cost thermal storage media with proven thermal power generation equipment.
Our technical approach embraces five key principles:
- Hybridization to achieve technical, economic, and siting synergies
- Low-cost, abundant, and safe thermal storage media
- Proven equipment to enable meaningful performance guarantees
- Vendor neutrality and best-in-class equipment to suit the application
- Patent enabling technologies and proprietary know-how
