INNOVATION

Scaled Power’s TurboGen© Turbogenerator was developed around our patented air-coupled turbomachinery to deliver a compact, reliable power source for long-endurance electric vehicles to market.

  • The cold power turbine allows for lightweight materials and additive manufactured components.

  • An advanced integrated recuperator provides increased efficiency and noise reduction.

  • Can improve endurance and payload by an order of magnitude over battery-only solutions.

  • The subsystems are sourced from a mature supply chain providing economies of scale.

APPLICATIONS

OTHER COMMERCIAL MARKET APPLICATIONS

The 5-year Commercial Drone Market is valued at $20B with military UAV spending for the same period forecasted to be $70B

The Drone Industry is progressing from consumer products and commercial demonstrations to regulated and insured operational fleets.

As beyond-line-of-site operation is permitted and commercial operation is widely adopted, enhanced aircraft endurance and payload will generate significant time and cost advantages over today’s state-of-the-art systems.
