[Hybrid AI Power System] Dopamine - Energy Efficiency through AI & ESS
Standard Energy and Rebellions
- 2026 Honoree in Sustainability & Energy Transition
Dopamine delivers the inference performance of leading high-power GPUs while consuming only ~10% of their peak energy demand. By combining Rebellions’ high-performance, ultra-efficient ATOM Neural Processing Unit(NPU) with Standard Energy’s intrinsically safe, water-based, 4C-rate Vanadium Ion Battery(VIB) Energy Storage System(ESS), the system sustains maximum AI performance without the drops, instability, or hardware stress caused by power fluctuations. The VIB ESS’s instant-response discharge and predictive scheduling maintain a supply latency of under 1 millisecond, even under volatile workloads, while flattening energy use to cut both total consumption and peak demand.
Unlike conventional setups where AI servers remain indoors and ESS units are installed outdoors with bulky cabling, Dopamine mitigates fire-risk, enabling safe indoor installation. The system's low-heat, co-located design reduces cooling needs, installation overheads, and waste—making it ideal for edge and small-scale data centers seeking high performance, lower costs, and improved sustainability in one compact system.
