Legacy Backup Power Wasn’t Built for Today’s Demands.
The Zero-glitch Power Module (ZPM) is the intelligent core of every HCI Energy solution and a proactive UPS replacement that ensures seamless, optimized power with zero interruption.
Power Without Pause and With Total Insight
Unlike traditional UPS systems, the ZPM provides real-time monitoring, alerts, and analytics, giving operators complete visibility and control while preventing downtime before it happens.

"We used to worry about downtime every time the grid blinked—now we don’t even think about it. Since we deployed the ZPM, it’s been flawless. Install was fast, and now I can check system status remotely at any time. For me, there’s no comparison—this is the solution I trust for public safety infrastructure."

Why Replace Your UPS with a ZPM?
Intelligent Power Management
The ZPM’s built-in intelligence continuously monitors all power flows, automatically balancing grid, battery, and renewable sources for peak efficiency.
Proactive vs. Reactive
While an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) reacts after a failure, the ZPM predicts, prevents, and manages power in real time.
Remote Monitoring & Alerts
Access site status, performance data, and event history anytime, anywhere, reducing the need for truck rolls.
Actionable Insights
Zero-glitch Assurance
Reduced Complexity
Ensures sensitive equipment stays online through every transition with no bumps, resets, or restarts.
Scalable & Hybrid Ready
Seamlessly integrates grid, solar, wind, battery, and generator inputs for any size site.
Reduced Operating Cost & Effort
Smart automation and remote visibility minimize maintenance needs and reduce costly and inconvenient site visits.
Battery-first Architecture
Delivers uninterrupted power directly from the batteries so critical systems stay online even if the grid or generator fails.
