TerraFlow and DG Matrix Pair Flow Batteries with Solid-State Power
AI data centers are pushing electrical grids to their breaking point with volatile power demands, prompting a new technical alliance in Houston. TerraFlow Energy and DG Matrix have partnered to deploy the first integrated vanadium redox flow battery and solid-state transformer architecture to stabilize high-performance compute clusters.

The collaboration links TerraFlow’s LDUPS long-duration uninterruptible power system with DG Matrix’s Interport solid-state transformer technology. By running this architecture against live Dell PowerEdge server loads, the companies aim to intercept rapid fluctuations in power demand before they impact upstream electrical infrastructure. Traditional grids were designed for predictable usage, yet high-performance computing creates spikes that current hardware struggles to absorb.
This system acts as a buffer between the grid and the compute load. TerraFlow’s battery technology provides the necessary duration and millisecond response time, while the Interport transformer enables programmable, real-time power routing. According to TerraFlow CEO Jon Parrella, the goal is to transform data centers from grid liabilities into assets by managing demand behind the meter. Haroon Inam, CEO of DG Matrix, noted that solid-state transformers allow for dynamic power control, replacing static voltage conversion with a software-defined approach. The companies plan to scale this integrated model for future data center projects as they look to solve the bottleneck of stranded power in AI infrastructure.
