A New Era in Mobile Power Generation

Antheon Research has assembled a world-class team of turbine engine experts to reinvent mobile power generation. We formed in 2018 to cultivate new technology in response to the unmet demand for a robust, environmentally-sound power solution in critical applications like disaster relief. The result is the most compact, efficient, and energy dense generator on the planet.

Introducing Firefly™

Green mobilized power when and where you need it.

Antheon’s eco-friendly Firefly Power System produces 1.5 MW in a small, lightweight, quiet and fuel-flexible platform. Our patented technology represents the most significant breakthrough in mobile power in decades and was designed, developed, and prototyped in record time. A fully functional demonstrator unit has also been built and rigorously tested.

Shattering technological barriers

Delivering energy at scale

Firefly is the world’s first green, highly mobile and megawatt-generating system.

Produces reliable power in a light, compact system for remote operations.

Delivers 1.5MW for distributed, micro-grid resiliency applications.

Meets military and humanitarian aid mobility requirements.

Charges up to 16 electric vehicles simultaneously.

Bridges the energy gap in a quiet, low-emission, fuel-flexible platform.

The Power Dilemma

A gap exists between the need for grid resilience and current green energy alternatives.

Even as the push to green energy continues to ramp up, a gap persists between the growing need for grid-distributed electrification and the use of alternate power sources like wind and solar. As a result, states across the U.S. are experiencing frequent brownouts and intermittent power disruptions. Internationally, where more countries are committing to a carbon-neutral future, the demand for micro-grid power to ensure energy resilience is also on the rise.

Conventional Generator

Fueling the Green Power Transition

Firefly’s sleek, lightweight design boosts efficiency, eliminates hazardous waste and minimizes maintenance.

Conventional generators are loud, inefficient, and emit a high volume of noxious fumes. These outdated technologies are also large and heavy, which limits their use in remote locations or in emergency situations when fast response is paramount.

By the numbers

A revolutionary system that’s more powerful, smaller, lighter and super-efficient.
