a story of power system strength
Powell Hydrogen is an Australian company made up of a team of engineers, scientists, researchers, developers and entrepreneurial thinkers who are working on the commercialisation of innovative technologies to harness the potential of a new super-efficient 1MW+ class multifuel power and water generation system.
PRISM-VS (Powell Rotating Inertial Synchronous Machine - Vertical Stack) is a unique vertically oriented, simple, cost-effective, robust, clean power generation system. capable of providing stable, resilient, inertia-supported 50 - 60Hz three phase electricity at multi-MW power levels. Developed in Bowral in the Southern Highlands of NSW, the PRISM VS systems will be manufactured in Moss Vale, NSW AUSTRALIA.
We are creating a greener future by innovating and improving core technologies for zero-carbon power integration from renewable sources. The PRISM VS system anchors our future strategy. Among our priority sites is Eilbeck Heavy Machining / Eilbeck Cranes, a local 115 year old Australian family-owned manufacturing and export company sitting at a critical node in Moss Vale, NSW. Commercial partnerships and strategic alliances are being developed now that proof-of-concept has been demonstrated, a clear commercialisation pathways have been identified. In a recent email dated 2nd Feb. 2025, the Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC) acknowledged the potential for the PRISM technology to provide further power system strength within the National Electricty Market (NEM): Your work on hydrogen-fuelled rotating machines and power system strength solutions is interesting in this context, particularly as the rule change examines how new and emerging technologies could contribute to inertia provision. We acknowledge that technologies like PRISM may offer additional pathways to supporting system strength and inertia in the NEM. As we refine our analysis, we will continue to consider the role of new technologies in the evolving market landscape.
The time is now to introduce AUSTRALIAN MADE power systems to the Australian market and stop sending our IP, resources and ingenuity offshore.
High quality 50Hz electricity (60 Hz in other parts of the world) underpins economic competitiveness. Clean 50 - 60Hz electricity is essential to, not only the running of a modern 24hr household, but also precision industry and critical infrastructure such as data centres and key strategic installations. Each Powell Hydrogen 1MW+Class PRISM VS system is part of the New Grid on the Block™ ecosystem to supply energy where it is required, when it is required, region by region, town by town, industry by industry, development by development using the cleanest fuels available. As a fuel agnostic combustion technology, the 'region specific' flexibility within the system is extraordinary.
Our vision is to leverage innovative solutions for the emerging distributed data-centric hydrogen economy. We are always eager to learn and to share knowledge. We collaborate, by design, with selected partners sharing our Made In Australia push.
