Working prototypes
Multiple operating prototype units have been built and tested against the production specification. Performance data is available under NDA to qualified prospects during the Discovery and Site-Survey stages.
Power On Generators · Off-grid · Fuel-free · Zero-emission
Spain went dark. Portugal went dark. Europe faces a costly power struggle for power. Natus Energy LTD has built power that runs on none of it.
Your power should never depend on the grid, the gas, or the diesel. Africa lives on sporadic grid power and diesel imports. Europe’s gas-and-fuel crunch is grinding industries and households alike. Power On Generators run on none of it — no grid, no fuel, no fossil, no solar input. Natus Energy LTD is not raising capital — we are taking orders. The first commercial order, secured by Standby Letter of Credit at the customer’s principal bank, kicks off the manufacturing scale-up and the factory setup.

Cross-border orders secured by Standby Letter of Credit from the customer’s own principal bank.
The opportunity
The grid is failing where it used to work. The fuel chain is failing where it never had to.
Spain went dark for hours in 2025. So did Portugal. The Iberian outage was the largest power failure in modern European history. The grid is the problem, and the grid does not get fixed at the speed of need.
Across the rest of Europe, gas-and-fuel prices have left industrial competitiveness eroded and household budgets strained. The continent is in a power struggle for power — literally and politically — with no settlement in sight.
Across most of Africa, reliable grid power has never arrived. Cellular towers, cold-chain, hospitals, mines, and agribusinesses run on diesel logistics that are themselves becoming more expensive and less reliable each year. Continuous primary power has been an unmet specification on the continent for decades.
Continuous primary power without fuel input, without solar dependency, and without grid synchronisation has been, until now, an unmet specification everywhere. Power On Generators meet that specification. There is no incumbent. There is no comparable product. The category begins with the first delivered unit, and the first commercial order is what kicks off the manufacturing capacity that scales the category.
This is demand creation, not demand capture. The first-customer position is finite, commercial, and structured — not promotional.
Where we are in the lifecycle
A precise statement of stage.
Family-office principals and corporate procurement teams alike apply the same first diligence question: at what stage is the company. Below is the precise answer, unembellished.
Built MVP
The minimum viable product specification is closed. All major engineering, manufacturing, and commissioning workstreams have been demonstrated end-to-end on at least one prototype.
Manufacturing-ready
Manufacturing partners, supply chain, and quality protocols are identified and contracted. The first delivered unit will be manufactured in series-production process — not as a one-off.
Pipeline in qualification
Active enquiries from corporate prospects across multiple sectors and geographies. None of these has yet converted to a delivered order. We are deliberate about which we engage; the SBLC qualification is uniform regardless of size.
Order book open
The first commercial Power Purchase Agreement is available for qualification now. The first SBLC-secured order kicks off series manufacturing, factory setup, and distribution. Mobilisation timeline is 60–180 days from contract signature, site-dependent.
Pre-revenue, by design
We have not delivered units yet. We do not claim revenue we have not earned. The first delivered SBLC defines the first reference deployment and the first revenue line.
The first-customer slot
Anchor pricing
Allocation rights
Reference status
Direct relationship
The first order is what kicks off the factory.
The first customer is more than a customer. By being first, that counterparty triggers the manufacturing scale-up, establishes the reference deployment, and sets the commercial benchmark for every customer who comes after. The slot carries the following commercial properties:
Locked at first-customer terms
The first PPA prices in the value of being first. Subsequent customers will see less favourable terms because the reference deployment will already exist. The anchor rate locks for the life of the PPA.
Right of first refusal on subsequent capacity
For a defined window after the first deployment, the first customer holds ROFR on additional unit allocations — for additional sites within the same operating company, or across portfolio companies under common ownership.
Foundation customer of the category
Formal recognition as the foundation customer. Brand value if the customer chooses to disclose. Anonymity preserved if the customer prefers to remain undisclosed — which is typical for family-office-routed deployments.
Principal-to-principal for the term
The technical and commercial relationship is direct with the founder for the life of the PPA. No account-management layer. No sales intermediary. No re-routing through partners.
The first-customer slot is a commercial position, not an equity instrument. Natus Energy LTD is a privately-held company and is not offering shares, warrants, options, or any other equity-style participation as part of this commercial offer. The relationship is supplier-to-customer, secured by SBLC, governed by PPA.
Commercial structure
Power Purchase Agreement
Standby Letter of Credit
PPA. SBLC. Principal-to-principal.
The deal shape is familiar to corporate treasurers and family-office banking counterparts. The same instruments used in commodity trading, large-equipment finance, and infrastructure procurement for decades.
Pay per kilowatt-hour, multi-year term
Typically 10 to 15 years. Locks OPEX certainty for the life of the operation. POG is on our balance sheet, not yours — usually treatable as a service contract under IFRS 16, not a lease. Maintenance, monitoring, software, and SLAs are bundled into the PPA. There is no separate maintenance contract.
From the customer’s principal banker, on standard ICC terms
Cross-border PPAs are secured by SBLC issued through the customer’s own principal banking relationship to ours. We accept SBLCs from any reputable issuing bank on standard ICC URDG or ISP98 terms. SBLC is refreshed annually for the life of the PPA. We do not factor or sell down the receivable; the contract stays between you and us.
Counterparty standards
What we will not do, and what we will not accept.
Stringent due diligence works both ways. We screen prospects with the same rigour we expect prospects to screen us. The list below is explicit because we have been targeted by the same trade-finance fraud patterns that family offices and corporate treasurers know well. Stating these standards publicly deters the wrong counterparties and reassures the right ones.
We are not raising capital
We are not seeking equity investment. We are not running a funding round. We are not entertaining advisory mandates that ask us to consider one. Approaches framed as investment opportunities are politely declined.
We do not engage with intermediaries
The first conversation is principal-to-principal between the founder and the counterparty’s senior decision-maker or their Investment Director / CIO equivalent. Brokers, agents, and "deal sources" claiming to represent capital that is not their own do not get past the screening.
SBLC must originate at the customer’s principal bank
The Standby Letter of Credit must be issued from the customer’s own treasury banking relationship — HSBC, Citi, J.P. Morgan, UBS, Pictet, Rothschild, Standard Chartered, or a bank of comparable standing where the customer holds a primary relationship. We do not accept SBLCs from third-party banks where the customer has no documented relationship.
Proof of funds in the customer’s own legal name
Account documentation must be in the customer’s own legal entity name. We do not accept "we have access to" or "we are connected to" representations. Beneficial-ownership disclosure is required during qualification.
No SBLC monetisation
We are not interested in any deal where the SBLC is monetised, factored, or sold down to a third party. The SBLC sits between the customer and Natus Energy LTD for the life of the PPA. Propositions that route around this structure are declined without exception.
No paid mandates, no pre-paid letters
We do not issue letters of capability, mandates, or counterparty-status documents in exchange for fees before SBLC qualification. We do not accept fees from counterparties seeking such letters. These are known patterns in trade-finance fraud and are uniformly rejected.
Where POG deploys
The operating-company profile.
The deployment lands inside an operating company — whether that operating company is wholly owned by a family office, part of a corporate group, or directly held. The shape of the consuming entity is consistent: high consequence of outage, capex-fatigue with diesel, ESG mandate, sites operated for years rather than months.
Mission-critical care & cold chain
Hospitals, ICUs, dialysis centres, vaccine cold-storage. Downside of power loss measured in lives, not pounds.
Data centres & digital infrastructure
Colocation, hyperscale outliers, edge sites. Five-figure averages per minute of unplanned downtime. POG removes diesel ATS dependency.
Continuous-process manufacturing
Pharmaceutical, semiconductor, glass, food processing, chemicals. A power event is a batch loss event.
Telecoms & remote infrastructure
Cell towers in fuel-logistics-difficult geographies. Mining sites. Offshore platforms. Diesel supply chains as vulnerability rather than backup.
Defence & critical national infrastructure
Where fuel-resilience meets ESG mandate. Where the grid is one of the threat vectors. Where downtime is national-security, not commercial.
Logistics & built environment at scale
Ports, airports, distribution centres, mixed-use estates. Where downtime cascades through supply chains. Where chillers and lifts cannot stop.
Versus the alternatives
POG, head to head.
For continuous loads at sites where downtime is unacceptable, the choice is between four real options. Three of them have known limitations.
| Grid + UPS | Diesel standby | Solar + battery | POG | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Continuous output | Subject to grid state | Standby only | Weather-dependent | 24/7, by design |
| Fuel logistics | None on site | Continuous diesel supply | None on site | None on site, ever |
| Scope-1 emissions | None on site | Significant; growing carbon-tax exposure | None on site | Zero per kWh delivered |
| Footprint | Tiny | Modest plus fuel-tank set-back | ~5.5 hectares per MW (UK) | Compact; urban-deployable |
| Cyber attack surface | Grid-routable | Air-gappable | Inverter and BMS connectivity | Islanded by design |
| Commercial structure | Utility tariff + UPS capex | Capex + maintenance + fuel | Capex or PPA | PPA, OPEX, no capex |
Begin a conversation.
A Discovery Call is a 45 to 60 minute working conversation between the founder and the principal or Investment Director on your side. We will share the engineering and commercial detail relevant to your enquiry. You will leave with a precise view of whether the first-customer position fits your portfolio and what the path to SBLC qualification looks like.
Stringent due diligence applies in both directions. Counterparty standards as set out above. Expect the same rigour from us in return.
