Renewable Innovations designs, builds and monitors hydrogen and solar power systems that bring clean, reliable energy to the places the grid cannot reach, and the places that cannot afford to lose it.
Our story starts before the company did.
In 2017, the team that would become Renewable Innovations worked with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory to prove that hydrogen fuel cells could power a data center, then collaborated with Microsoft on how to scale that idea. In 2019 they founded Renewable Innovations in Utah to take clean, resilient power out of the lab and into the field.
Today we are a privately held company, and our systems are engineered in Lindon, Utah, with a dedicated technology and power lab. The same engineers who design each system watch over it from our Network Operations Center, which remotely monitors fielded systems around the clock.
Nine years from a data center experiment to a near-megawatt microgrid in the desert.
Two years before the company existed, the team led the work with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory that proved fuel cells could power a data center, then collaborated with Microsoft on making it scale.
The company incorporates in Utah with a clear mandate: turn hydrogen and solar research into deployable, monitored, USA-built power systems.
RI systems power a 2,500 km desert rally, the first of five consecutive years turning the desert into our most demanding proving ground.
RI builds its power integration around GM's Gen2 HYDROTEC fuel cell power cubes, pairing automotive-grade fuel cells with RI conversion and controls.
A hydrogen storage and transport collaboration that extends how far RI systems can carry their own fuel.
Purchase orders exceeding $7M arrive from Fortune 50 companies, and FY2022 closes with revenue growth of 837%.
The Mobile Power Generation system enters service with the most demanding customer there is.
A state-owned enterprise orders the country's first hydrogen fuel cell UPS, the start of a 100-plus system, $30M-plus opportunity, alongside an engineering collaboration with AECOM New Zealand.
EPRI and the California Energy Commission select RI hardware for a community microgrid pilot at Oakmont Village.
RI systems keep the first electric vehicle ever to win the rally charged across 2,500 km of desert.
Four Level 3 and ten Level 2 chargers run entirely on hydrogen and solar at one of the harshest off-road races in the world. Coverage in The Verge follows.
A hybrid microgrid approaching 1 MW powers the rally, and a research and development collaboration begins with Toyota Motor North America.
If we can deliver nearly 1 MW of power in the middle of the desert, we can do it anywhere, including data centers, ports, and emergency operations centers.
Bob led the team that worked with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in 2017 to prove fuel cells could power a data center, then collaborated with Microsoft on scaling the concept. He founded Renewable Innovations in 2019 to carry that work from proof to production.
