Product Overview
Overview
NOMAD Transportable Power Systems was founded by Northern Reliability, and KORE Power. The idea was formed early in 2015 when a necessity was recognized to deliver energy based on the customers’ needs with a lower cost of entry. Starting in early 2019, NRI and KORE established a working partnership for standard ESS systems that are mobile and 100% the U.S. manufactured and designed.
Their solution is backed by cutting-edge battery cell technology from KORE Power, and their U.S.-based engineering team can tailor each NOMAD individual customer needs.
They offer three main products, which can be used for different use cases including C&I applications. They can also customize the end-solution depending on the client's needs so no need to stick with these 3 systems at all times.

Technology Innovations
Mobile energy systems offer low-cost, on-demand solutions that fill in the gaps in the energy transition, providing an answer to logistical question marks like infrastructure creation, financial constraints, or unreliable grids. NOMAD systems can be delivered almost anywhere in the world and cost far less than fixed systems with the flexibility of being grid-tied or powered by renewables like wind, solar, or hydropower.
Applications
NOMAD works to bring their mobile energy systems for commercial businesses, utility providers, and even governmental agencies that need dependable, solutions to meet decarbonization goals.
The company also provides a short-term solution to meet renewable goals while a permanent solution is deployed, eliminate the need for dirty peaker plants, and reduce overall energy costs for commercial and industrial businesses through energy cost arbitrage, reduction in peak energy demand, and renewable energy shifting.
Mobile capabilities make NOMAD systems a viable solution for a wide range of applications, including disaster relief organizations, hospitals during storm outages or grid failure, remote research facility power, military and security use, EV charging, or temporary or seasonal utility grid support.
