The Next Phase of Electrification
Industries worldwide are shifting to electric operations in facilities, data centers, and
logistics. The constraint is not only demand—it is speed to power, scale, and adaptability.
Traditional centralized infrastructure that takes decades to build cannot meet today’s
timelines. Artificial intelligence (AI) data centers demand huge amounts of energy on
short notice, and factories are shifting to all-electric processes. The path forward is
modular, distributed, and programmable power at the edge—right where it is needed.
Why Centralized Models Fall Short
Legacy models depend on long permitting cycles, utility interconnection queues, and
major transmission projects. These take years, while businesses need to energize in
months. Upgrades to substations, feeders, and lines can stretch deployments to
24–60 months. Fixed, centralized designs struggle to adapt when demand shifts or
new technologies arrive. Capacity is often stranded upstream, while load centers face
bottlenecks—raising cost and risk.
A Better Model: Modular, Programmable, and Distributed Power
Distributed systems reverse the equation. Pre-engineered blocks, placed near the load,
energize sites faster and reduce dependence on upstream upgrades. Local capacity
improves resiliency during grid stress or outages. Modular hardware scales one block at
a time and helps avoid large one-way capital bets. The next terawatt of useful capacity
comes from intelligent systems at the edge—not wires alone.
The Platform Behind Distributed Power
DG Matrix builds this approach on a multi-port, solid-state transformer (SST) foundation.
Energy/Power Router consolidates many conversion stages into one programmable
platform that connects grid, solar, storage, generation, electric vehicle (EV) charging, and
critical loads through configurable ports. Software activates and evolves functions over
time, including dynamic power sharing, demand-charge mitigation, time-of-use
optimization, grid-forming operation, and seamless islanding. Together, these capabilities
turn each site into a controllable node of a broader power operating system.
