Ever wondered what keeps emergency lights glowing during blackouts or ensures your golf cart doesn't quit on the 18th hole? Meet the unsung hero of power systems - gel battery technology. The PG Gel Series Plus Power lineup represents the latest evolution in valve-regulated lead-acid (VRLA) batteries, combining NASA-grade engineering with everyday practicality.
Unlike their liquid-filled cousins, these batteries use silica-thickened electrolyte that behaves like technological Jell-O. This innovation:
When Mumbai's new metro system needed backup power that could withstand 45°C heat and 90% humidity, they installed 800+ PG Gel units. The result? Zero downtime during monsoon season while cutting maintenance costs by 40%.
Solar installers are flocking to these batteries like moths to a flame. Their 98% charge efficiency makes them ideal for:
Third-party testing revealed impressive stats:
Metric | PG Gel Plus | Industry Average |
---|---|---|
Cycle Life | 1,200+ | 500-800 |
Self-Discharge | 3%/month | 5-8%/month |
Temp Range | -40°C to 65°C | 0°C to 40°C |
Want to maximize your battery's lifespan? Remember:
With the rise of smart grids and V2G (vehicle-to-grid) technology, PG Gel's modular design allows seamless integration. Recent upgrades include:
The compact PG-12V-100 model delivers surprising punch - it's powering an entire Antarctic research station's comms array while taking up 30% less space than traditional units. Talk about cold-weather performance!
While upfront costs run 15-20% higher than flooded batteries, consider:
As one Telco engineer joked during a recent blackout: "Our PG Gels outlasted the diesel generator - and made better coffee." While we can't confirm the caffeine claims, the reliability metrics speak volumes. Whether you're designing microgrids for smart cities or just want uninterrupted Netflix during storms, this technology represents the new gold standard in energy storage solutions.

North Korea is a net energy exporter. Primary energy use in North Korea was 224 TWh and 9 TWh per million people in 2009. The country's primary sources of power are hydro and coal after Kim Jong Il implemented plans that saw the construction of large hydroelectric power stations across the country.
Hydropower is the dominant form of electricity generation in North Korea. The country’s numerous mountains and rivers make it an attractive choice for power generation. As noted in article one of this series, Statistics Korea estimates it accounted for 53 percent of all power generation, while Nautilus Institute put hydro at 76 percent.
This installment of our series on North Korea’s energy infrastructure will examine one of North Korea’s largest hydroelectric power installations: Huichon Power Stations No. 1 through 12. Construction of the system first started during the Kim Jong Il era and ended in the Kim Jong Un era.
Preface North Korea suffers from chronic energy shortages. Rolling blackouts are common, even in the nation’s capital, while some of the poorest citizens receive state-provided electricity only once a year.
Under North Korea’s two-tier energy system, which prioritises industrial facilities, the only way for many citizens to access electricity is to pay state functionaries to allow them to install cables to siphon off power from local factories.
Access to solar panels has created capacity where the state falls short, but the overall energy security challenges facing the nation are daunting. This report, “North Korea’s Energy Sector,” is a compilation of articles published on 38 North in 2023 that surveyed North Korea’s energy production facilities and infrastructure.
