PowerAlpha® makes "power when you need it" possible

What is PowerAlpha?

The clean energy sector has seen unprecedented growth in the past decade, and forecasts are showing an increase in this growth rate moving forward, as digital infrastructure is booming and domestic manufacturing is also bringing load. With this growth expectation, utility-scale power projects become the center of attention for business models and ramp-up planning. In particular, hybrid energy projects are inherently complex and have a multi-decade project lifecycle, making risk-reduction and design optimization critical pieces of the process. This is the power of PowerAlpha.

  • Lowest levelized cost of energy

    PowerAlpha identifies the ideal configuration for the highest value

  • Customized Solutions

    PowerAlpha optimizes hybrid projects to deliver reliable power based on each customer’s needs

  • Smart O&M

    PowerAlpha makes real time dispatch recommendations

  • BrightNight’s PowerAlpha uses sophisticated AI technology to support the successful integration of hybrid power infrastructure into today’s grid. PowerAlpha takes utility-scale energy hardware and software systems beyond their basic capabilities to meet the needs of today’s dynamic power demand.

  • PowerAlpha uses AI to find the best technology-agnostic solutions for our diverse customers based on their specific needs. PowerAlpha’s strategic approach can be broken down into three simple phases:

    • Design hybrid renewable power projects to build a portfolio solution for lowest cost and maximum return.
    • Optimize generation and storage assets to customize the power solution for customer’s unique needs and its broader portfolio.
    • Operate the power solution, managing hybrid renewable assets for minimizing downtime risks and making dispatch decisions for firm power.

  • PowerAlpha reduces barriers to hybrid power adoption by optimizing project site development, selecting the ideal generation mix, and identifying the best system design to ensure reliable, sustainable, affordable power system operations.

Watch the First AI Energy Leadership Summit in the U.S.

Last year, BrightNight convened some of the most sought-after and respected Energy sector leaders from across the United States in Washington, D.C., for the first-ever AI Energy leadership summit in the U.S. to discuss how Artificial Intelligence is revolutionizing the path toward global decarbonization. The summit featured the U.S. Under Secretary of Energy for Science and Technology, Dr. Geraldine Richmond, along with senior leaders from the U.S. Congress, NVIDIA, Google, Intel, IBM, Bank of America, EEI, KPMG, EPRI, and other organizations.

The inaugural “AI: Powering the New Energy Era” leadership summit hosted more than 30 outstanding speakers, and 500+ industry leaders, policymakers, researchers, investors, and academics who joined the summit in person in DC and virtually online for a day full of engaging discussions on this timely and important topic. We heard industry and government leaders debate the solutions and challenges, and address critical issues such as policy, technology, financing, and collaboration.

The full event replay is available below. We hope you will enjoy revisiting the enlightening keynotes and engaging panel discussions from the first leadership summit in the U.S. exclusively dedicated to exploring the influence of Artificial Intelligence on the Energy sector.

The unique capabilities of PowerAlpha allow BrightNight to integrate new large loads faster, even in congested grids.
