DSO Electric deploys two Nomad mobile battery systems after pilot
Nomad Power Solutions (NASDAQ: NMAD) announced that DSO Electric Cooperative has placed two company-owned Nomad Battery Energy Storage Systems into ongoing seasonal operation following a 2025 peak-shaving pilot program.
The Kansas-based electric cooperative purchased the two Nomad Traveler units after the pilot projected more than $100,000 in seasonal demand charge savings. During the pilot, the two units were integrated into DSO's distribution network in less than one day, with minimal site preparation.
DSO uses the mobile battery systems as part of its peak-demand management strategy. The systems store energy during low-demand periods and discharge during peak-load events, allowing the cooperative to reduce wholesale electricity costs.
"DSO's transition from a pilot participant to an owner-operator provides validation of both our technology and the value proposition of transportable energy storage," said Geordan Pursglove, chief executive officer of Nomad.
"Based on the pilot's results, we elected to purchase the two units and incorporate them into our ongoing seasonal operations as part of our broader effort to manage wholesale power costs for our members," said Derrick Rutherford, chief administrative manager at DSO Electric Cooperative.
Nomad, through its wholly owned subsidiary Nomad Transportable Power Systems, produces mobile utility-grade battery storage platforms. The company is headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida, and DSO Electric Cooperative is based in Solomon, Kansas.
