Products | Rainer Hake | reading time: 6 minutes
The American technology company IOXUS offers one of the most advanced data-driven energy storage system able to solve the worlds most pressing problems. It's simply called MUSETM-System, the abbreviation for "Modular Ultracapacitor Stored Energy".
The MUSE™ System provides artificial inertia to support wind, solar, and wave power generation, stabilizing the grid and enabling the efficient harnessing of renewable energy for a sustainable future.
Rapidly changing power profiles from new loads such as large-scale data centers providing AI inference, require grids with high dynamic power capacity to maintain seamless compute performance. With its instantaneous response time, the MUSE System empowers AI to reach new levels of capability.
MUSE™ could supply the pulse of power to initiate a fusion reaction to power the next big accomplishment.

MUSE-MSTM Management System
The MUSE-MSTM delivers advanced control and monitoring for the entire MUSETM ecosystem:
- Sophisticated hierarchical control architecture that mirrors the energy storage system hierarchy
- Real-time monitoring of all system components
System Controller: Responsible for overall system management, including coordination of string controllers, monitoring system performance, and communicating with the STATCOM system.
String Controller: Each string has a primary string controller(and redundant back up) responsible for managing the racks within that string. It interfaces with the system controller and the rack controllers.
Rack Controller: Each rack is controlled by a rack controller (and redundant back up), which interfaces with the string controller and the module controllers. It manages the modules within the rack and monitors their performance.
Module Controller: Each module has a module controller responsible for monitoring and controlling the individual module's operation. It communicates with the rack controller.
- Predictive maintenance powered by advanced data analytics
- Innovative digital twin technology for precise State of Health (SoH) evaluation
- Fail-safe redundant communication and control
Supercapacitor Management And Reporting Technology (SMARTTM)
SMARTTM is the intelligent core of the MUSETM system, offering:
- Precision voltage monitoring of every individual cell
- Comprehensive temperature sensing with multiple sensors per module
- Secure isolated communication between components
- Versatile low-voltage operation capabilities
- Optimized cell balancing for peak performance
- Power derived from both cell array and from an external power source
- Over discharge (reverse charge) toleration to negative voltages down to -0.5 V with no permanent degradation to the energy storage system
