Asset Recovery Options
Cash payment
A direct payment option for organizations liquidating assets or closing facilities.
Credit toward a new purchase
Trade-in credit can be applied to upgraded UPS systems, generators, battery energy storage systems, or other critical power equipment. This reduces capital requirements for future projects and supports reliable power infrastructure planning.
How Valuation Is Determined
UPS system valuations are based on several key factors:
Brand
Top-tier manufacturers tend to retain higher resale value due to long-term reliability and demand in the secondary market.
Age
Recent-generation models typically command higher prices, while legacy or discontinued systems may have reduced market value.
Condition
Operational status, physical condition, and battery health all influence pricing. Well-maintained equipment typically results in higher returns.
Size and configuration
kVA rating, battery runtime, input and output configuration, and included accessories, such as battery cabinets or maintenance bypass units, all contribute to the final valuation.
We evaluate each system with precision to ensure fair and transparent pricing.
