We founded FMP Alliance to champion and encourage the widespread adoption of fault managed power across diverse industries. FMP Alliance was conceived and founded by Belden, Cisco Systems, Panduit, Prysmian, and VoltServer.
The founding members of the FMP Alliance bring together extensive expertise and experience in the realm of power technology.
Illuminating a Resilient Future: Leading the Charge in Fault Managed Power for a Sustainable World
The FMP Alliance envisions a future where every community, for bustling megacities to remote villages, has access to safe, reliable, efficient and sustainable energy.
Our focus is on harnessing the transformative power of fault-managed power systems to ensure that energy - the lifeblood of our modern world - is not just accessible, but also physically safe, resilient against disruptions, environmentally friendly, and adaptable to the ever-changing global needs.
We see a world where energy security and sustainability are not at odds but are harmoniously balanced, powering a brighter future for all.
The mission of the FMP Alliance is to drive the global transition to fault managed power systems that prioritize safety, reliability, efficiency, and environmental sustainability.
FMP Alliance, Inc., is a 501(c)(6) nonprofit organization, incorporated in the State of Delaware.
