What is MOS 350 and how does it work?

MOS 350 is Molecule Systems' edge operating system that runs on site-level gateways, providing deterministic, real-time control of distributed energy resources without cloud dependency. Think of it as aerospace-grade firmware for VPPs. MOS 350 handles three critical functions: (1) Protocol translation - it speaks Modbus, OCPP, API, CAN, and other protocols, normalizing communication with batteries, inverters, and chargers. (2) Local execution - dispatch logic runs at the edge, not in the cloud, enabling millisecond-level response times and autonomous operation during internet outages. (3) Hot-swappable optimization - algorithms can be uploaded, updated, or replaced via the cloud without downtime, device reboots, or site visits. MOS 350 is self-healing: if the gateway loses connectivity, it continues executing the last-known dispatch logic. When connectivity returns, telemetry syncs and cloud-based optimization resumes. It's built for grid-grade reliability: 99.9%+ uptime, sub-second telemetry, and deterministic control precision. Learn more about MOS 350 and edge-first architecture.
