Industrial Power, Simplified: How B.E.S.T. Makes 3-Phase Infrastructure Obsolete

For decades, if you wanted to run high-power equipment—like fast EV chargers, industrial machinery, or powerful central HVAC systems—you had one option: 3-Phase Power.

While effective, 3-phase power is a logistical and financial nightmare for many businesses and homeowners. It’s the "heavy machinery" of the electrical world, and installing it where it doesn't already exist is often a dealbreaker.

The Buima Energy Storage Tile (B.E.S.T.) changes the game. By buffering and boosting standard power, it makes heavy 3-phase infrastructure redundant for a wide range of applications.

The Pain: Why 3-Phase is a Problem

Upgrading a site to 3-phase power isn't just about flipping a switch. It involves significant hurdles:

  • Exorbitant Costs: Bringing 3-phase lines from the street to a building can cost tens of thousands of dollars in construction, trenching, and utility fees.

  • Long Lead Times: Permitting and utility construction can take months or even years, stalling projects indefinitely.

  • Geographic Restrictions: In rural areas or older city centers, the 3-phase grid simply might not be available nearby.

  • Heavy Footprint: It requires large, ugly transformers and switchgear that consume valuable land or floor space.

The Solution: B.E.S.T. Decouples Power from the Grid

B.E.S.T. solves this by acting as a powerful intermediary. It takes the "light" power you have and turns it into the "heavy" power you need.

1. Input: Standard Single-Phase (Simple) B.E.S.T. connects to standard single-phase 220V AC power—the kind found in almost every home and office. This means zero grid upgrades are required. You plug into what you already have.

2. Process: Buffer & Boost (Smart) The system uses its batteries to "buffer" energy. It draws power slowly from the grid (like filling a water tank with a garden hose) and stores it.

  • Proprietary Series Connection: This is the magic. The B.E.S.T. tiles connect in series to stack their voltage, internally creating a stable 400V or even 800V DC output.

3. Output: High-Power DC (Industrial) When you need to charge an EV or run a heavy load, B.E.S.T. releases that stored energy at high speed (like opening a fire hose). It delivers industrial-grade 400V+ DC power instantly, bypassing the limitations of your single-phase connection.

The Result: Freedom to Build Anywhere

By eliminating the need for 3-phase infrastructure, B.E.S.T. democratizes high-power applications.

  • Install EV Fast Chargers in residential garages or remote parking lots.

  • Run High-Load Equipment in small commercial spaces without rewiring the building.

  • Deploy Rapidly without waiting for utility upgrades.

With B.E.S.T., you aren't limited by the grid. You bring the power with you.
