Uprise Energy has developed a unique energy delivery system that breaks the chains of the power grid and is not reliant on fossil fuels; the Uprise Energy – Mobile Power Station (Ue.MPS) is a 10kW wind turbine that fits in a 20’ (6m) shipping container, can be conveniently towed by a standard vehicle, sets up in one hour and produces affordable electricity. The machine is designed to be especially efficient in low wind speeds, which allows it to be located at or near the customer.
Uprise was co-founded by John and Jonathan Knight. John was recently awarded the Distinguished Alumni Award from the Cal Maritime Academy for his professional accomplishments as Founder, CEO and Lead Engineer of Knight & Carver Yachtcenter and Knight & Carver Wind Group. The two have a long history of developing technologically advanced, complex products, including the US Department of Energy Top 10 award winning STAR Blade® that is the number one performing wind blade ever built.
