At Torus, our mission is to empower communities to become their own renewable energy providers.
In the past 100 years, our planet’s energy demand has grown 100-fold, while the population has increased 6-fold. More recently, we have seen a significant spike in demand driven by AI, cloud computing, electric vehicles, and the electrification of businesses and homes. These technologies will lead to exponentially higher energy demand in the decades to come. Put another way, our world’s future will require far more power than we currently produce.
We’re committed to finding a solution to this rising problem, while creating a reality in which renewable energy is not only possible, but the norm. At our state-of-the-art facilities in South Salt Lake, Utah, we’re building groundbreaking energy storage and management products designed to power our communities sustainably and reliably. By manufacturing our products stateside with domestically sourced materials, we’re creating green jobs and helping to establish America as a leading source of energy innovation.
Today, Torus has developed an integrated suite of energy storage, management, monitoring, and security products designed to power commercial buildings and increase the capacity and resilience of the electrical grid. Recognized by a national utility partner, our technology has proven its effectiveness in the real world, delivering an essential solution for our grid infrastructure.
We believe that the shift to distributed energy storage and management represents a natural evolution toward more sustainable and robust solutions. By embracing this transition, Torus is creating a more reliable power grid that meets the diverse needs of our modern world. At its core, our vision is about building a future where energy is clean, accessible, and designed for the long term.
Our commitment extends beyond innovation. We pride ourselves on the lasting relationships we build with our customers. Our products are designed for durability, with a lifespan of over 25 years, and we are committed to ensuring their performance at every step of the way.
Join us on this journey toward a sustainable energy future. Together, we have the power to redefine how the world thinks about energy and create a brighter, cleaner tomorrow.
