Orbita Power · the energy layer · new

Keep the link up. And the lights on.

A terminal is only as alive as the battery under it. Orbita Power brings the Tesla Powerwall and solar array at every remote site onto the same screen as connectivity — so a site that's about to go dark is a number on the dashboard, not a 2am phone call.

The blind spot

You watched the link. Nobody watched the battery.

At a remote site, the terminal doesn't fail because Starlink failed. It fails because the Powerwall hit reserve at 3am, the grid never came back, and solar won't catch up until sunrise. Connectivity monitoring sees the symptom — an offline terminal — hours after the cause was a falling number you couldn't see.

Before · connectivity only

The terminal just "went offline."

You learn about it from the customer. The battery was draining for six hours and the first signal you got was a dead link. Every minute after that is reactive.

Mean time to detect a power causehours
After · power + connectivity

The site warned you at sundown.

State of charge crossed the floor, the site islanded, autonomy dropped below eight hours — and an alert fired while the link was still up. You dispatch, or shed load, before anything goes dark.

What we read

Eight numbers behind every terminal.

Pulled from the Powerwall and site controller every few seconds, normalized into the same health model Orbita already uses for connectivity. Same colors. Same definition of "fine".

State of charge

The headline number. How much usable energy is left, right now, as a percentage.

% · live

Backup reserve

The floor you set to protect the terminal. We alert before the battery touches it — never after.

% threshold

Solar input

Generation from the site array in kilowatts — the only thing keeping an islanded site alive.

kW · generation

Terminal load

What the Starlink terminal and site gear actually draw — the demand side of the equation.

kW · draw

Grid status

On-grid or islanded. The moment a site loses utility power and runs on battery alone, you know.

on-grid / islanded

Autonomy

Hours of runtime left at the current draw, recomputed continuously. The number that tells you when to act.

hours · projected

Module temperature

Pack thermals, so a battery running hot in the desert sun surfaces before it derates.

°C · per pack

Health & cycles

Capacity retention and charge cycles over the pack's life — the slow signal for planned replacement.

How it works

Connect the battery. Watch the whole site.

Orbita Power reads each site's Powerwall the same way Orbita already reads its terminals — through the supported battery system's API — and folds energy into the fleet model you already operate.

01

Link the Powerwall.

Authorize the site's battery system once. Orbita pairs each Powerwall to the terminal it backs, so power and connectivity share one site identity.

~ 5 minutes · per site
02

Set the floor.

Choose a backup reserve per site — the state of charge that keeps the terminal protected. Orbita watches the gap and warns before the battery reaches it.

Per site · per customer
03

Operate on one screen.

Battery, solar and link sit in the same NOC. A power alert fires while the terminal is still online — so you dispatch, shed load, or reassure a customer ahead of the dark.

Ongoing · 24/7 NOC
The power surface

The same room. Now with the batteries in it.

Fleet power overview — every site's state of charge, solar input, terminal load, grid status and projected autonomy, with a live power-flow read for any site you select. Dark, dense, calm until something needs you.
