Contract Research & Development

IRIS Power personnel have gained worldwide recognition for their development of innovative products for the electrical industry. A particular feature of Iris's R&D is the ability to develop products from a user's point-of-view. This results from the Iris founders' past experience in working for utilities, including OEMs and their vast industry experience.

The quality and cost-effectiveness of IRIS Power R&D has led several user organizations to partially fund many projects. Current and past developments funded by external sources such as EPRI, ESEERCO, CEA, NYPA and others include:

  • MICAA - expert system software for large motors and generators
  • XVISOR - expert system software for transformers
  • SURGRISC - on-line monitoring instrument for motors
  • GENLIFE - expert system software for large turbine generators
  • SLEAK - decision support software for water-cooled turbine generators

As a Canadian company, IRIS Power offers competitive rates for contract R&D fulfilled by a unique team of software and hardware development professionals and by rotating machinery experts.
