The rise of AI is exposing a critical challenge in data center power: the inability of traditional UPS batteries to handle dynamic, ‘spiky’ peak loads. In a recent BISNOW article, our Senior Director of Sales – Americas, Alan Forster explains why Musashi’s Hybrid SuperCapacitors (HSCs) are redefining energy storage for next-generation AI infrastructure.
Musashi Seimitsu Industry Co., Ltd. announced the opening of its new Tokyo Office in Minato Ward, Tokyo. The office is designed to strengthen existing businesses, drive new growth initiatives, and expand Musashi’s global presence.
We’re pleased to share that our flagship energy storage system, the ESS400, is featured in the November–December 2025 issue of ASHE’s Health Facilities Management magazine.

We’re proud to share that the July/August issue of North American Clean Energy features Musashi Energy Solutions’ latest article on “Why Hybrid SuperCapacitors are the future of AI Energy Storage.” A big thank you to the editors for highlighting this important topic.
Is longer battery autonomy really the key to better data center reliability? Not always. After 25 years of analyzing data center performance, reliability expert Steve Fairfax reveals surprising insights in the latest issue of 7×24 Exchange International magazine.
Longer autonomy does not increase data center reliability
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) autonomy time — the interval that a UPS can support its critical load on battery power alone — has historically been determined by the characteristics and limits of electrochemical lead-acid and lithium batteries. Hybrid supercapacitors (sometimes called superbatteries or HSCs) offer the potential to match UPS autonomy times to operational requirements while improving reliability.
While modern power systems reduce the risk of downtime, the need for energy storage still exists. Energy storage is used for those times when bridge time is needed – to bridge the power between utility failure and the 10 to 15 seconds it takes for emergency power to become available, usually with on-site generators.
Evolution in supercapacitor technology presents an attractive alternative to battery (Li-ION, VRLA, Sodium or Zinc-based) solutions. A great example of these advancements is Musashi Energy Solutions’ (MES) Hybrid SuperCapacitor (HSC) based solution for the 10-second bridging needs of the modern Emergency Power Supply System.
Explore how our patented Hybrid SuperCapacitor (HSC) technology enhances mission-critical backup power configurations. Experience super-fast charge/discharge capabilities, exceptional safety (no thermal runaway issues), an impressive 100,000+ cycle lifespan, and unparalleled reliability—all in a compact, power-dense design. HSCs serve as an ideal alternative to lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries for 3-Phase UPS systems, requiring significantly less space, maintenance, and cost! Watch to learn why HSCs are the next evolution in safe, sustainable energy.

Musashi Energy Solutions is pleased to announce the appointment of Naman Buch as an Applications Engineer. Buch brings a dynamic and valuable skill set to MES, with a strong foundation in both chemistry and electrical engineering, and will play a key role in supporting the MES North America Sales team.
This month’s IEEE Power Electronics magazine features an “Expert View” article on the Rise and Limitations of Hybrid SuperCapacitors for AI Data Centers by our Director of Engineering Services Oliver Ulibas.
The AI revolution is here, and it’s rewriting the rules of data center power consumption. Our jam-packed fall conference season—from 7X24, Data Center World Asia, and DC/AC to OCP, YOTTA and DCD Virginia—confirmed one thing: the conversation has shifted. Data Center operators are no longer just looking for backup power; they are actively seeking smart, safe, and dynamic solutions for the unpredictable peak loads generated by AI workloads.
