Hybrid AI Power Systems

Dopamine is a CES 2026 Sustainability & Energy Transition Innovation

Delivering the inference performance of leading high-power GPUs while consuming about 10% of their peak energy demand, Dopamine is a hybrid AI power system and 2026 CES Innovation Awards Honoree in the Sustainability & Energy Transition category.

High-power GPUs drain energy, overheat facilities, and crash under fluctuating loads. These spikes cause throttling, instability, and costly cooling—undermining performance exactly when workloads surge. ​​Traditional setups separate indoor AI servers from outdoor ESS units, adding bulky cabling, fire risk, and wasted power while still failing to deliver stable, millisecond-level response. Standard Energy and Rebellions jointly received the award for their innovation combining Rebellions’ high-performance, ultra-efficient ATOM Neural Processing Unit with Standard Energy’s intrinsically safe, water-based, 4C-rate Vanadium Ion Battery Energy Storage System.
