Torus

We’re proud to share that Torus has raised $200 million from Magnetar. This investment accelerates the deployment of our modular power plants for utilities, data centers, and commercial and industrial customers. Our hybrid flywheel + battery systems respond in milliseconds, deliver 99.9% uptime, and are already making electricity more reliable and secure. With this partnership, we’re scaling faster to meet rising demand from AI, cloud, and electrification. The grid is changing fast and we’re building the infrastructure that will keep it resilient, affordable, and secure for decades to come.

We’re honored to share that the Torus Spin Flywheel Energy Storage System has been named a winner of the 2025 R&D 100 Awards in the Mechanical/Materials category. Since 1963, the R&D 100 Awards have recognized the most impactful innovations in science and technology worldwide. Other  winners this year include some of the most impressive research labs in the world,  like Oak Ridge National Lab, DuPont, and MIT — and now Torus joins that list. Torus Spin is part of the Torus Station, delivering fast, durable, and sustainable power to strengthen the grid. This recognition follows the Torus Spin selection as one of TIME’s Best Inventions of 2024, further validating its role as one of the most advanced energy storage solutions on the market today.

We’re proud to share Cicero MGT’s independent 122-page report analyzing Torus modular power plants. The study confirms how our hybrid flywheel-battery systems deliver the reliability, resilience, and scalability utilities and industries need. Independent research like this builds confidence and accelerates adoption. Read the article and download the report here: https://lnkd.in/dZaS_R-q

We’re proud to announce the successful demonstration of Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery cells in 18650 format, produced with critical materials 100% sourced in North America. This milestone confirms that the North American LFP supply chain is real, resilient, and ready — with validation results showing that U.S. innovation is not only competitive with global leaders, but capable of surpassing world-class performance at high discharge rates and other key metrics. This achievement was made possible through our trusted partners: 🔹First Phosphate Corp CSE: PHOS – FSE: KD0 – OTCQX: FRSPF, supplying high-purity materials from Quebec 🔹Torus, integrating these cells into hybrid flywheel-battery systems for AI data centers, utilities, and critical infrastructure At a time when AI workloads, electrification, and national security demand reliable, scalable power, this milestone demonstrates what’s possible with a fully domestic supply chain. The best part? We’re just getting started. 🔗 Read the press release here: https://lnkd.in/gVuAybAf

We’re very proud of our partners at Ultion who had a big announcement this week. With Ultion’s help, North America has produced battery cells that rival and in some cases surpass the world’s leading products, built entirely from U.S. and Canadian materials. Ultion in Nevada and First Phosphate in Quebec validated LFP cells that deliver world-class results at commercial scale. For Torus, this milestone strengthens the hybrid flywheel-battery systems we deploy as modular power plants for utilities, data centers, and commercial facilities. Our systems deliver millisecond response times and 2,000-plus cycle life, with a supply chain built entirely in North America. As AI workloads and electrification drive massive new power demand, operators need solutions that combine performance, resilience, and scalability. Ultion’s breakthrough gives Torus and our customers that edge. Read the press release here 👉 https://lnkd.in/g8ey6bGv

Permitting reform is the number one barrier to America’s energy future. As Senator John Curtis shared on his visit: “Getting permitting right in Washington is my single biggest energy priority.” At Torus, we’re proving how innovation and American manufacturing can unlock growth, jobs, and energy independence.

We’ve come a long way since building our first flywheel prototype in a garage. Today we’re running a full production floor in South Salt Lake, and last week we welcomed Senator John Curtis to see it for himself. He spent time with our team, walked the floor, and talked about the role Utah can play in building America’s energy future. A few highlights from the visit: • Torus systems balance the grid with clean, American-made technology • 95% of our supply chain is local to Utah • Our employees are building real solutions that support both jobs and energy security As Senator Curtis put it: “Innovation matters, but it’s the people on the floor who make it real.” We couldn’t agree more. Proud of this team and proud to be part of building the next generation of power infrastructure here at home. Read the full press release here https://lnkd.in/grvsDwdf

Yesterday we had the honor of hosting U.S. Senator John Curtis at our South Salt Lake facility. From a garage prototype in 2022 to today’s full-scale production, Torus is proving what American manufacturing can deliver for the grid. “If I had a magic wand, I would wave it and bring all of D.C. right here to see what you’re doing, because this is what makes America exceptional.” – U.S. Senator John Curtis We’re building inertial-based distributed power plants that strengthen the grid, support renewables, and power America’s energy independence.

Hybrid flywheel-battery systems are proving to be one of the most effective tools for building a resilient, efficient, and economically viable energy future. By combining the fast-response capabilities of flywheels with the long-duration storage of advanced batteries, Torus delivers infrastructure that thrives under stress, supports grid stability, and extends battery life.
