Uprise Energy8575 Aero Drive, San Diego, California, United States

Uprise Energy has developed a unique energy delivery system that breaks the chains of the power grid and is not reliant on fossil fuels; the Uprise Energy – Mobile Power Station (Ue.MPS) is a 10kW wind turbine that fits in a 20’ (6m) shipping container, can be conveniently towed by a standard vehicle, sets up in one hour and produces affordable electricity. The machine is designed to be especially efficient in low wind speeds, which allows it to be located at or near the customer.

The wind turbine fits in a 20’ shipping container, is towable by an ordinary vehicle and sets up in one hour without the need for site improvements or lengthy wind studies. The machine is designed to be especially efficient in low wind speeds, which allows it to be conveniently located near customers, particularly in areas that have historically relied on diesel generators for power.

Inspired to find new applications for their award winning STAR Blade®, the Uprise Team identified the constraints that plague access to renewable energy, particularly at the grid's edge, and set out to find solutions. Systematically, Uprise developed a host of innovations that either mitigated or eliminated each and every constraint, exposing new and promising opportunities across many markets.
