Why now
2026 is the year of Energy Storage
On March 16, 2026, Governor Healey signed an executive order directing Massachusetts to deploy 5 gigawatts of new energy storage by 2035.
The state is paying buildings to help.
Massachusetts runs Connected Solutions and Clean Peak Standard programs that pay commercial buildings directly for battery availability during high-demand events. The programs exist because the state needs what your building can provide.
Add capacity to the grid
Solar interconnection queues stretch years in most service territories. The state needs capacity. Distributed storage is the fastest, cleanest way.
Avoid ugly projects
Grid headroom gets used one way or another. Utility-scale developers are already identifying sites in Massachusetts towns. Those projects deliver no direct benefit to the buildings next door.
Drive down costs
Commercial demand charges in Massachusetts can account for 30 to 70% of a building's bill. The problem is structural and it is getting worse.

We left Harvard to deploy affordably here in Massachusetts.

Team
Our team prides itself on balancing topical expertise with a range of skillsets. From Harvard drop-outs, to PhD-level optimization engineers, to battery management system designers, to hands-on operators, to our network of local electricians, we share is a belief that energy infrastructure should serve the people who live and work inside it. The best way to build that is to show up, do excellent work, and earn trust one town at a time.
Our advisors include the Global Head of Sustainability at JLL, the CEO of CREtech, and operators who have worked at Tesla and inside some of the most advanced battery and grid programs in the country. We also work closely with fire marshals and utilities who helped shape the safety codes that govern commercial battery storage.
We are backed by strong capital partners including Vine Ventures, Floodgate, SV Angel, Nova, Alt Capital, with smaller investments from top names in energy and real estate.
