More power behind the meter. No utility upgrade.
UpGrid is a modular BESS (battery energy storage system) that amplifies your existing grid 5–10×. UL-certified. Deploys in 90 days.
Which one sounds like your site?
Each page opens a working savings calculator tuned to that profile — real tariffs, real load curves, real deployment timelines.
4 chargers today. 20 tomorrow. Same meter.
Your grid caps your charger count — not your fleet plan. UpGrid amplifies what's behind the meter so you scale without waiting on the utility.
Your GPUs are ready. Your grid isn't.
Existing AC service won't power modern AI racks. UpGrid converts it to clean 800V DC — CPU workloads keep running, new racks come online in 90 days.
Retire three systems. Keep one contract.
UPS, BESS, and diesel in one DC-coupled cabinet. One vendor, one service plan, multi-hour backup built in — with capacity headroom for the next line you add.
The grid is slow. Your projects aren't.
If you're expanding AI compute, electrifying a fleet, or adding industrial capacity, you've already hit the same bottleneck: utility service that can't scale on your timeline.
10,300+ projects waiting for utility capacity to come online.
Share of queued projects that actually make it to commercial ops (2000–2019).
Peak-pricing penalty — compounds with every new charger, rack, or production line.
UpGrid collapses your power stack.
A modular battery system behind your meter. Charges off-peak, dispatches on demand, keeps your meter draw flat — while your racks, chargers, or production lines get all the power they need.
5–10× amplification
The meter doesn't change. Your behind-the-meter capacity grows 5 to 10 times over — enough to unblock almost any expansion.
90-day deployment
Site survey to commissioning. No utility queue. No transformer wait. No AC switchgear rebuild, no downtime on existing loads.
Fully UL certified
UL 1973 battery safety, UL 9540A fire safety, UL 2202 charger safety, plus CSA for Canadian deployment. Your AHJ won't blink.
Purchase order to commissioned in 90 days.
No utility approvals. No transformer lead time. Your existing AC service stays in place; we deliver amplified capacity behind it.

The battery platform your project was waiting for.
Four advantages that matter on your site — not in a deck. Every one is something you measure on the meter, in the bill, or on the deployment schedule.
Native 800V DC — no inverter penalty.
Most batteries are AC-coupled and convert twice between battery and load. UpGrid ships native 800V DC — NVIDIA's high-voltage-DC reference — for ~5% higher efficiency and fewer failure points.
One cabinet replaces three systems.
Legacy sites run three stacks: UPS for ride-through, BESS for peak shaving, diesel for backup. UpGrid consolidates all three in one cabinet. One vendor, one service contract.
Behind-the-meter, no utility approval.
happens here
All UpGrid amplification happens behind your meter. Skip the interconnection queue, the transformer order, the switchgear rebuild. You deploy on your schedule, not the grid's.
AHJ packet ready on day one.
Every cabinet ships with a submittal packet your Authority Having Jurisdiction (fire marshal, plan reviewer) already recognizes: UL 1973, UL 9540A, UL 2202, NFPA 855 setback, CSA for Canada.
