Powering Mission Critical Infrastructure
About SENS
Stored Energy Systems (SENS) is a Colorado-based designer and manufacturer in mission-critical environments like data centers, hospitals, utilities, and telecommunications networks. For more than 50 years, SENS has reduced operational risk by engineering reliability at the system level, helping customers simplify infrastructure and protect uptime.
Our products are relied upon by the biggest names in North American energy infrastructure, including:
Critical starting components in over
75%
of North American critical power gensets larger than 500kW
Integrated solutions in more than
80%
of hyperscale and colocation data centers in the U.S.
DC power and engine starting experts
Systems for non-stop power are built in layers. Every application is unique, but all depend on reliable industrial battery chargers, starting systems, DC power systems and related solutions - which we deliver:
-
UPS systems that kick in instantly, ensuring seamless operation
-
DC power systems that provide hours of backup, or continuous power to DC loads
-
Battery chargers and engine starting systems to crank up diesel or gas generators
-
Automated redundancy and battery monitoring systems to maximize uptime and reliability
Together, these technologies form the backbone of critical power resilience.
Innovation that delivers long-term value
Our customers know that uptime is everything. When power fails, the costs are measured in lost revenue, compromised operations, and damaged reputation. That's why we engineer for reliability from the inside out.
Drawing on deep expertise in power conversion and energy storage, we apply worst-case design principles to ensure components stay within safe limits under extreme stress. We continually balance innovation with proven performance - developing new technologies where they add real value and refining established designs where they already excel.
This approach has delivered generation after generation of the industry's toughest, smartest battery chargers and DC power systems.
