In Qnetic energy storage systems, the inverter is not just another component. It controls the heart of the system, the motor that manages energy flow in both directions, charging and discharging. It also ensures stability under real operating conditions. If this layer fails, the system safely shuts down.  That is why this component is critical. Qnetic has partnered with ABB for its inverter technology, a partner proven at scale and built for demanding industrial environments.

AI data centers are pushing energy infrastructure to its limits. They demand extreme reliability while operating under rapid, high-frequency load fluctuations, conditions that can degrade traditional lithium-ion systems over time. At Qnetic, we’re exploring a different approach. We’re currently in discussions with AI data center operators. As part of our roadmap, we plan to simulate the AI power management use case in our upcoming pilot hosted by one of the national labs, whe

In 2025, Qnetic raised $7.1M in new capital , including $5M to launch U.S. manufacturing and deploy our first Q500 flywheel energy storage systems. This funding moves Qnetic from advanced prototypes toward early commercial rollout , supporting: • Initial production at our California facility • Deployment of first pilot systems  with utilities and commercial partners • Independent validation with organizations including Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI)  and National La

After Raising $9.2M, why does Qnetic Open Its Next Investment Round? Many of our investors have asked how Qnetic’s financing evolved over the past year, so here is a short overview. In 2025, Qnetic raised $7.1M in new capital. The Wefunder round ultimately closed at $2.1M  in May 2025. Shortly afterwards, Qnetic finalized a $5M priced investment  with a private investor from a prominent Saudi business family. What comes next? Looking ahead, Qnetic’s goal for 2026 is raising $

Dear follower of Qnetic,    This is a general business progress summary for the six months up to the end of 2025 intended for the general investor audience. Thank you for your interest.    Summary     $5M funding closed via a private offering, bringing the total to $7.1M in 2025  We signed LOIs with two important customers for high-profile pilot projects in the US  The Shanghai-based team moved into the new Qnetic Technology Centre  The lease was signed on our Sacramento Prod

At Qnetic, robust engineering means planning for scenarios you hope never occur. Our team has completed the assembly and testing of the emergency safety bearing for Vega . The safety bearing is designed as a fail-safe mechanism designed to protect the rotor in the unlikely event of power loss or abnormal operation. In normal operation, the safety bearing is not used. But keeping it in the design and testing it early is a deliberate engineering choice. Through this system, we

With the Vega safety cover now fully installed , Vega has successfully surpassed 10,000 rpm , a major technical milestone for Qnetic. The gauge display shown is from Qnetic’s internal system monitoring software. Vega ’s rated continuous power capacity is 10.5 kW. The screen capture was taken during operation at 7.5 kW . This achievement doubles the previously announced operating speed  and represents a significant step forward not only for the rotor itself, but for the enti

Qnetic is pleased to welcome Hugh McDermott  as Chief Commercial Officer and President of the Americas , strengthening our leadership team as we scale commercial operations and prepare to go to market. Hugh has been working with Qnetic for most of 2025 as Business Development Director , where he played a pivotal role in shaping our commercial strategy and securing our pilot projects. His impact was immediate and material, underscoring the importance of his leadership as Qnet

Qnetic has completed the installation of the Vega safety shield , a critical infrastructure upgrade enabling safe, high-speed rotor testing as Vega advances.  The safety shield has been analysed and engineered in collaboration with Schenck , a globally recognized leader in spin testing and rotor dynamics . Working with Schenck ensured that the design, calculations, and safety margins meet the highest international standards for high-speed rotating systems. In the video, you w

A 20-tonne overhead bridge crane has been successfully delivered and installed. This marks a major step toward full hardware assembly for Pulsar, our next-generation flywheel energy storage prototype. The new crane will support the lifting and integration of core components, enabling safe, fast, and precise assembly work. It has a span of 19.5m and a lifting hook height of 10.3m. While the rails were already here, the bridge and trolly are brand new. Custom made, delivery was

Qnetic is scaling up and it starts here. We’ve officially signed the contract for our Sacramento Production Centre site  in California, setting the stage for large-scale mechanical battery production and our next phase of growth. This site bridges the gap between R&D and full-scale manufacturing , accelerating Qnetic’s journey toward commercial deployment. The site comprises 30,000sqft/2,855sqm of brand new warehouse/factory space including a 2,860sqft/266sqm self-contained o

Construction is complete and Qnetic’s Shanghai Technology Centre is now operational ! The team is already on-site, turning innovation into hardware . ”The TC” comprises a design and development office with meeting room, a conference room, a mechanical and electrical lab, and a large workshop space. This is a pre-existing building of almost 1,000m2 where we have undertaken renovations to some existing structures to tailor it to our needs, creating an excellent new hybrid worki
