Established in the UK in 1997, Psymetrix is recognized as an industry leader in the real-time management of power system oscillations and damping, helping generation and transmission companies in Europe, Australia and North America to dramatically improve operational performance.Psymetrix's suite of enterprise-wide power system dynamics applications gives transmission and generation companies unique real-time decision-making capabilities.Driven by ground-breaking on-line dynamics measurement technology, Psymetrix Power Dynamics Management (PDM) applications provide unique analysis of dynamics measurements taken direct from plant, with no need for system modeling.Psymetrix PDM solutions open the door to a huge range of performance improvements in the following areas:* System Security* Generator Dynamics* Optimizing TransmissionPsymetrix's power system dynamics solutions have been tested and refined over several years through a combination of laboratory bench testing and rigorous day to day use and evaluation in a wide range of operational environments on major power systems around the world.Under these long-term high-pressured conditions the technology has been proven to be exceptionally reliable, both in terms of system robustness and delivering superb performance results

Lawrenceville Plasma Physics (LPP) is conducting peer-reviewed research into a low-cost nuclear fusion generator that would provide clean, abundant and safe electricity to a worldwide market. Our patented technology combines a device called the dense plasma focus and the advanced fusion fuel hydrogen and boron-11 (p-B11) in an approach we call "Focus Fusion." Upon demonstration of scientific feasibility in 2011, we anticipate a clear engineering path towards the commercialization of what will amount to unlimited energy with no radioactive waste. In addition to valuable spin-off applications in non-destructive inspection and medical isotopes, LPPs commercial product will be compact, mass-manufactured 5 MW generators with costs less than any competing energy source. In 2009 LPP was granted US Patent #7,482,607, "Method and apparatus for producing X-rays, ion beams and nuclear fusion energy," with international patents filed, in support of our Focus Fusion technology. LPP has met with and expects NJs Board of Public Utilities and Department of Environmental Protection to declare that Focus Fusion is an Approved Alternative Technology for Class I Renewable Energy. Engineering estimates project the cost of a 5 MW generator at around $300,000, with minimal maintenance costs and hydrogen-boron fuel requirements of only a kilogram per megawatt-year. Therefore, installation costs will be about $60/kW, and generation costs are estimated at about two tenths of a cent per kWh, many times cheaper than current costs.

Peregrine Power is a company that received a SBIR Phase I grant for a project entitled: Universal Utility/Customer Interface. Their research project will lead to an electrical panel with modules that provide interfaces between the electrical grid and the residential customer's on-site loads and other energy systems. Through the use of interactive solid state meters, the utility will be able to intelligently regulate loads and dispatch on-site energy systems. The on-site energy systems include, but are not limited to, controlled loads (e.g., water heating), pluggable EVs, generation systems (e.g., PV panels), and energy storage (e.g., spent EV batteries). The panel and modules represent the most integrated and economic system attempted so far to enable more intelligent energy management and will encourage renewable energy and conservation. In addition, new grid stabilization opportunities will be created for the utility. The proposed approach will use advanced power electronics, along with state-of-the-art communications techniques. The broader impacts of this research are (1) to enable utilities and over 50,000,000 residential customers to implement safe, convenient and economic energy management techniques, (2) to encourage renewable energy, and (3) to provide distributed generation and storage systems that assist the utility in stabilizing the grid. This would lead to more reliable and less costly energy for the customer, along with reduced greenhouse gas.

CVT Corp (formerly S.O.E. Technologies) has developed a continuously variable transmission and related control system for power generators. The control system simultaneously adjusts (within a fraction of a second) the speed of the engine and the transmission ratio in order to meet the electrical load experienced by the generator, thus delivering fuel economy. The development of the transmission for other markets such as heavy equipment and tractors is planned in the short term.

Fabreeka is a provider of engineered vibration-isolation and shock-control products, including isolation pads, isolation mounts and highly engineered vibration solutions. Fabreeka's products control unwanted shock vibration to help reduce wear, maintenance costs and down time for its customers, serving a diverse customer base across numerous end-markets, such as test and measurement, industrial machinery, manufacturing, precision equipment and aerospace and defense.
