Unmatched EMP Protection for
Your Critical Infrastructure

EMI Tested to Military Electrical Substation Standards

Electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) pose a significant threat to electronic systems, with the potential to disrupt or destroy critical infrastructure. Sol-Ark’s optional EMP-proof products are engineered to provide the highest level of protection. This upgrade ensures your systems remain operational even in the event of an EMP.

Why EMP Protection Is Needed

Nearly 70% of the nation’s grid is more than 25 years old

According to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), nearly 70% of the nation’s grid is more than 25 years old. The DOE says the U.S. needs to expand electricity transmission systems by 60% by 2030—and may need to triple current capacity by 2050—to accommodate the country’s growing renewable energy sector and meet increasing power demand for electric vehicles (EVs) and electric home heating.

The electric power distribution system in the U.S. has over 5.5M line-miles with over 180 million power poles susceptible to damage by weather and its effects, and account for a majority of power outages in the country each year.

Power Outages

Power outages from severe weather have doubled over the past two decades across the United States, with the average duration of outages exceeding eight hours. EMP events can cause similar or even more extended disruptions. By implementing EMP protection, we can mitigate the impact of these events and maintain a reliable power supply.
EMP Protection Against Severe Weather

Protection Against Lightning Strikes & Severe Weather

It doesn’t matter if you’re directly in the eye of the storm; a simple thunderstorm taking out a grid transformer. It can take crews a long time to restore that power. Long enough for you to lose as much as $500 worth of food in your fridge or freezer. Imagine a much more severe weather incident that leaves the power out for weeks. Sol-Ark will help you get past any such situation and help you save money at the same time.

The Sol-Ark® 15K Whole Home and 12K Essentials hybrid inverters are EMP-hardened to handle over twice military requirements to over 100kV/meter!

Protection Against Solar Flares & Geomagnetic Storms

Solar flares are intense bursts of radiation from the sun’s surface, caused by the release of magnetic energy stored in the solar atmosphere. These phenomena can have destructive effects similar to Electromagnetic Pulses (EMPs) but occur naturally. When solar flares are directed towards Earth, they can cause geomagnetic storms, which are disturbances in Earth’s magnetosphere. These storms are triggered by the solar wind, a stream of charged particles emitted by the sun, interacting with Earth’s magnetic field. The probability of experiencing a significant geomagnetic event is approximately 1% per year. The NASA report from July 2014 states there is approximately a 12% chance of a significant solar flare occurring over the next 10 years. Historical evidence supports the severity of such events.
