What is military portable power?

Military portable power is rugged, transportable electricity for operations away from the grid: batteries, battery generators, solar and fuel cells that keep radios, drones, sensors, EW systems, medical gear and command posts running in the field. The best systems are silent, low-signature, fuel-free and rechargeable from any source, so a unit is never tethered to a fuel convoy.

Wearable10–150 WhNVG, GPS, EUD, radio

Zero signature. Infinite ops.

A fuel generator is a target.

New Use Energy severs the logistical tether. The SunCase™ pairs rugged battery generators with stealth military-grade solar to deliver a rapidly deployable, off-grid energy fortress: resilient, zero-signature power that sustains drones, comms and sensors. Combat-proven by over 10 million hours across U.S. and Ukrainian units.

Why we work this hard. Behind every jammer is a crew, and behind every crew is a city. A generator that gives away a position costs lives. So our veteran-led team builds power that stays silent, stays hidden to thermal and stays on, every day, for the people who stand between the drones and their families.

Every watt we build is meant to bring someone home.

Military drone & counter-UAS power

Drone warfare
runs on watts.

Every FPV strike, ISR sortie and counter-UAS intercept starts with a charged battery. NUE powers the full drone ecosystem: aircraft batteries, goggles, controllers, monitors, signal boosters and Starlink. Teams recharge in safe zones and redeploy in austere positions, extending mission duration for reconnaissance, target identification and precision strikes.

  2. Store & convertA SunCase 605 rides with the team; a 2425 or 3651 anchors the launch site. Pure sine AC plus 24/48 V DC.
  3. ChargeDrone battery chargers, goggles, controllers, monitors, repeaters and Starlink all run from one silent case.
  4. FlyPacks rotate continuously: one set flying, one set charging, one set cooling or warming.

ATAK end-user device35 W71 charges143 charges

Sortie math, worked.

A team flying 12 sorties a day on 160 Wh packs needs about 1,920 Wh for aircraft batteries. Add Starlink for 12 hours (~1,200 Wh) plus controllers, goggles and EUDs (~300 Wh) and the day comes to roughly 3.4 kWh. A SunCase 2425 (2,560 Wh) with its 1,000 W solar input refills about 3.75 kWh on a five-sun-hour day; a 3651 adds a full day of reserve.

Field rules for drone teams.

  • Charge in safe zones, fly from forward positions.
  • Warm packs in the cold: rucksack battery heater, heated 2425 batteries.
  • Keep the power source cold on thermal with SunStealth™.
  • Distribute power: no single generator to target.
  • Log watt-hours per sortie, then size the next mission.

Silence and stealth for EW teams.

NUE systems power man-portable and vehicle-mounted jammers and dismounted battlefield intelligence-gathering systems. With no engine noise and a low, maskable heat signature, they are hard for enemy thermal and acoustic sensors to find, so EW teams keep jamming and collecting without giving away their position.

Gas generator
  • Loud: heard at long range at night
  • Hot exhaust: bright on thermal
  • Fuel resupply exposes convoys
  • One generator, one target

  • Silent operation, runs lid-closed
  • Low heat; SunStealth™ masks the rest
  • Recharges from solar, vehicle or fuel cell
  • Distributed nodes: harder to kill
Use cases

A game-changer for expeditionary aviation and distributed ops.

From the flight line to the littoral, NUE power replaces the generator wherever small teams need silent, self-sufficient energy.

Questions

Straight answers.

What is military portable power?
Military portable power is rugged, transportable electricity for operations away from the grid: batteries, battery generators, solar and fuel cells that run radios, drones, sensors, EW systems, medical gear and command posts in the field. The best systems are silent, low-signature, fuel-free and rechargeable from solar, vehicles, grid or fuel cells. See Best Military Portable Power Solutions for Field Operations.
What are the best portable power solutions for military field operations?
Gas generators are no longer the best option: they are loud, hot and tied to a vulnerable fuel supply chain. A tiered system of silent solar-plus-battery generators works best: wearable batteries for individuals, a 16 lb SunCase™ 605 for drone teams and medics, the 1213 or 2425 for squads and command posts, and the wheeled 3651 (scalable to 20 kWh) for outposts, all recharged by solar, vehicles or fuel cells. Full guide: Best Military Portable Power Solutions for Field Operations.
Which companies specialize in rugged portable power units for defense use?
Specialists span soldier-worn power, military batteries, battery generators, fuel cells and solar. New Use Energy specializes exclusively in ultra-portable, ruggedized solar-plus-battery systems for military and first responders: purpose-built single-case designs (the SunCase 605 weighs just 16 lb), battle-proven in Ukraine and selected by DIU and the U.S. Army. See Which Companies Specialize in Military Portable Power Devices.
Where can I find portable power generators designed for military vehicles?
NUE units are purpose-built for military vehicles and charge from the alternator in transit through universal DC-DC charging, even from a 12 V socket, and anti-idle operation lets an ISU or JLTV run 2 hours on and 10 hours off. See Best Lightweight Portable Power Solutions for Soldiers on the Move.
Who offers portable battery packs built for military durability?
Few companies build to a true tactical standard. SunCase™ systems are engineered from the ground up, not consumer units in a protective case: LiFePO₄ prismatic cells, resistance to drops, temperature extremes and dust or sand, lid-closed operation and a year of shelf life, so fewer failures and fewer spares. Compare categories in Top Rugged Portable Power Packs Designed for Military Use.
How do you power military drone teams in the field?
Run the full drone ecosystem (batteries, goggles, controllers, monitors, repeaters and Starlink) from a silent SunCase™: a 16 lb 605 travels with the team, a 2425 or 3651 anchors the launch site, and solar or vehicle charging refills it. A 2425 recharges about 16 160 Wh drone packs per charge; the 3651 about 31.
Who is Paul Shmotolokha?
Paul Shmotolokha is CEO and Chairman of New Use Energy Solutions and a former U.S. Army officer. An entrepreneurial, global leader with a record of founding, growing and exiting telecoms and energy businesses, he leads NUE's battle-proven military portable power programs and speaks on counter-drone power, signature management and expeditionary energy.
What portable power products are recommended for extended military missions?
Make a SunCase™ the lightweight, rugged hub for encrypted comms, night vision and mission gear. For multi-day missions, pair a SunCase™ 2425 or 3651 with SunFold solar or a SunWing™ trailer, and add a methanol fuel cell where sun is unreliable. See Modular Power Systems for Deployable Command Centers and Fuel Cell Power Systems vs. Battery Packs for Remote Deployments.
