What UPS Technology does

UPS Technology a.s. is a Czech-headquartered specialist in backup and continuous power systems, founded in 1991 and based in Brno. It designs, sources, installs, and services uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, motor-generator sets (MTG), battery energy storage systems (BESS/KESS), and photovoltaic inverters, with its own-branded UPS STAR, UPS BATTERY, and Cygni lines manufactured to company specifications by selected partners. The portfolio spans standalone UPS from 1kVA to 1000kVA, modular UPS to 4000kVA, motorgenerators from 20kVA to 3750kVA (diesel, gas, biogas), high-voltage units from 5kV to 11kV, power-balancing systems and small power plants from 4MW to 20MW, containerized BESS from 1MW, and PV inverter/battery systems up to 100kW.

The business operates on an enterprise field-sales motion, selling turnkey backup power solutions to datacenters, industrial and manufacturing facilities, healthcare providers, fire-protection systems, energy utilities, and government customers across the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Revenue is generated through one-time equipment sales and installation projects, wholesale distribution to channel partners, and recurring after-sales service contracts that include scheduled preventive maintenance, warranty extensions beyond the standard 24 months, an emergency hotline, and a remote monitoring service center. Customer logos include Škoda Auto, ČEZ Group, IBM, Generali, Skanska, STRABAG, CETIN, DPD, Prague Airport, and Czech Police, indicating concentration in critical-infrastructure and large-enterprise accounts. Quality is certified to ČSN EN ISO 9001:2001. Since 2024, the company has been owned by Czech investment group Adax Invest, marking a transition from 33 years of independent operation to a sponsored growth posture.

Broad incumbents

• Caterpillar: Global manufacturer of diesel and gas gensets (20kVA to multi-MW) under the Cat and FG Wilson brands; competes directly with UPS Technology's motorgenerator portfolio in industrial and utility backup applications.
• ABB: Global electrification and industrial automation leader with UPS, switchgear, and power protection solutions; competes for large industrial and utility backup power projects in CEE.
• Eaton: Global power management major with a broad UPS portfolio (single-phase to multi-megawatt) targeting datacenters, industrial, and healthcare — directly competing with UPS Technology in Croatian and CEE mission-critical markets.
• Schneider Electric: Parent of APC and Galaxy, the largest UPS vendor globally; competes with UPS Technology on the same datacenter, industrial, and healthcare RFPs in Czech Republic and across Europe.
• Cummins: Global manufacturer of diesel and gas generator sets, power generation systems, and increasingly battery storage; competes with UPS Technology's 20kVA–3750kVA MTG portfolio and power plant offerings.
• Vertiv: Dedicated critical digital infrastructure provider offering UPS, power distribution, and thermal solutions; competes for the same datacenter and telecom backup power contracts that UPS Technology targets.

Direct peers

• Socomec: French-headquartered specialist in UPS, power conversion, and energy storage for industrial and datacenter applications; comparable scale and product focus to UPS Technology.
• Riello UPS: Italian UPS manufacturer with a global footprint; UPS Technology is both an authorized Riello reseller and competes with Riello's own direct enterprise sales in the Czech and broader EU markets.

Emerging players
