Optimal Energy Systems, Inc. is a U.S. corporation founded in 1997. Optimal is in the process of reorganizing and is moving its operations to Albany, New York.

The company is a new-technology based flywheel power system manufacturer, specializing in the development and manufacture of flywheel systems for high performance Aerospace & Defense, and industrial energy management solutions.

Our technologies focus on critical power applications in the military high-voltage pulsed power, and low and medium-voltage industrial energy management markets.

The company’s technology is rotary machine based with technical advantages based on patented high-speed flywheel and supersonic electrical machine inventions. Combined, the technologies provide advantages in power applications ranging from military high-voltage prime power systems to industrial energy management applications. These industrial applications include traction networks in metropolitan electric rail systems, large scale wind farm power integration and utility frequency regulation, commercial high voltage power supply systems, and heavy industrial utility customers with uniquely aggressive power load-leveling needs.

Optimal has differentiated itself by offering the highest density prime power technology in high-voltage pulsed power applications for various agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense. The Company is expanding its operations with the introduction of the Industrial Energy Management Flywheel Power Module for voltage support and voltage regulation in aggressive power load-leveling commercial applications. Once installed the system offers the smallest footprint and weight in a commercially available complete energy management system.
