Heathrow, Florida, November 4, 2025- Prevalon Energy and Emerson today announced a global strategic collaboration to deliver integrated battery energy-storage, automation and control solutions tailored for the data-centre industry, pitching a single-vendor path for resilient, grid-friendly power at hyperscale and colocation sites.
The alliance pairs Prevalon’s HD5™ Energy Storage Platform and insightOS™ energy management system with Emerson’s Ovation™ Automation Platform to give operators a unified view of storage, generation and plant control.
Prevalon describes the HD5 as a factory-tested, liquid-cooled platform that delivers 5 MWh of usable energy and is engineered for rapid deployment and safety; insightOS sits above it to orchestrate site-level dispatch, forecasting and lifecycle operations. Emerson’s Ovation system supplies the plant-grade control layer, distributed logic, diagnostics and deterministic control, used by utilities and industrial operators to run critical plants reliably. Together, the companies say, the stack targets round-the-clock firming, black-start resilience and tighter integration between BESS, on-site generation and the grid.
“This alliance with Emerson marks an important milestone in the evolution of data center energy systems,” Tom Cornell, Prevalon’s president and CEO, said in the announcement. “By integrating our storage and energy management platforms with Emerson’s proven power plant control technologies, we’re empowering data centers to achieve unmatched reliability and efficiency in a rapidly electrifying digital economy.”
Emerson framed the deal as marrying its decades of power-plant automation with Prevalon’s turnkey BESS approach.
“By combining Emerson’s deep industry expertise and innovative automation technologies with Prevalon’s advanced energy storage solutions, we are enabling data centers worldwide to achieve unprecedented levels of efficiency, resilience, and sustainability,” Bob Yeager, president of Emerson’s power and water business, said. “This collaboration reflects our commitment to delivering integrated technologies that meet the demands of a rapidly evolving digital economy.”
The companies say the agreement is a teaming arrangement to jointly pursue global projects from design and engineering through commissioning and long-term service; the press materials stop short of customer-level contracts or announced pilots.
Technical specs beyond the HD5’s 5-MWh baseline, such as power ratings, round-trip efficiency, control-latency metrics, and OEM interoperability tests, were not published and will likely be specified when deals are announced.
For data-centre operators, the collaboration promises a tighter, factory-integrated route to commercial energy storage combined with plant-grade automation, potentially speeding deployments that need firm, renewable-first power and deterministic operational control.
The partners say they will coordinate go-to-market, engineering, and customer-engagement activities worldwide as they seek early projects.
