Antares Power Solutions

What Antares Power Solutions does

Antares Power Solutions GmbH is a privately held German B2B provider of power quality solutions and Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems, headquartered in Paderborn and operating as part of the NXT Power Group. The company sells exclusively to OEM customers across five niche verticals: Analytics, Diagnostics, Medical Technology, Industry, and Retail/Banking. It positions itself against mass-market UPS vendors by focusing on applications requiring high reliability and high dynamic response rather than commodity backup power.

The product portfolio centers on three UPS technology tiers: VI/Line-Interactive systems (basic protection), VFI/Online double-conversion systems (extended protection, including a 19-inch rack-mount variant), and VFI-ISO Isolated-Online systems with integrated isolation transformers (full protection). Single-phase power range spans 250 VA to 10 kVA, with three-phase options available. The portfolio is complemented by accessories such as custom distribution boxes with integrated fusing, adapter cables, and country-specific power cables. Product differentiation rests on the VFI-ISO isolation architecture, intelligent battery management, SNMP/USB/relay monitoring interfaces, and compliance with CE, UL/cUL, RoHS, and WEEE standards.

Antares generates revenue through hardware sales of UPS systems, professional services (consulting, power quality analysis, load profiling, conception, and pre-installation commissioning), recurring maintenance contracts, and warranty services. Pricing is custom-quoted per project rather than published, and go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales supported by Just-in-Time logistics, consignment warehouses, and framework contracts. The company employs 51–100 people and is led by Managing Directors René Thomas and Mark Herbert. Operating geography is the DACH region, with regulatory certifications in place supporting broader European and North American market reach.
