A few weeks ago, our co-founder Vince Wong had a great conversation with Maeve Allsup at Latitude Media about ElectricFish's mission to accelerate decarbonization while mitigating the effects of climate-induced grid failures. We're excited about our formal partnerships with Idaho National Laboratory and Argonne National Laboratory which will further de-risk our manufacturing roadmap and bring even more differentiation to our microgrid-capable fast EV charging systems. Thank you to Reshma Singh, Shanshan Li, Ingrid Xhafa, Ryan Benitez, Jacqueline Blackburn, Benjamin Downing, and the rest of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Cradle to Commerce, Decisive Point, Berkeley Lab, Massachusetts Institute of Technology's The Engine, and OneValley teams for their support in helping us secure these impactful relationships with the National Labs. Looking forward to working with our nation's best and brightest in research and innovation! ⚡

I enjoyed sitting down with DISTRIBUTECH International's Editor-in-Chief John Engel to discuss ElectricFish's successes and growth trajectory since winning DTECH's Initiate Startup competition in San Diego last year ⚡ In order to achieve our collective climate objectives we need to electrify everything, and underpinning this historic transition are our electric utilities. For startups working on accelerating electrification, DISTRIBUTECH International is the premier industry forum for connecting with electric utility stakeholders, partnering with them on their infrastructure roadmaps, and advancing innovative solutions which support resilient grid modernization. We had a blast with them this February in Orlando, and are excited to return even bigger in Dallas next year (everything's bigger in Texas, as they say 🤠). H/t Debarshi D. for introducing us to DTECH's Initiate 2 years ago Article and full video interview here: https://lnkd.in/gkxRU5rR #ElectricUtilities #GridModernization #Climatetech

We had the honor of attending the invite-only grand opening of ElectricFish’s new Manufacturing Facility recently. Hosted in partnership with the California Energy Commission, the event was a celebration of innovation and a brick and mortar commitment to sustainable energy solutions. The day was packed with discussions from industry leaders and public figures, and a tour of the facility. Thank you, ElectricFish, for inviting Dedrick Roper to be a part of this milestone. We look forward to seeing how your new facility advances the future of energy and manufacturing! https://electricfish.co/ #CleanEnergy #Manufacturing #Innovation #Sustainability #GrandOpening #CleanEnergyTransition #BuildMomentum

Stay tuned, we'll showcase our build 1 from the new facility! #FacilityLaunch #Innovation #distributedresources #startups

A few days ago, we celebrated a significant milestone at ElectricFish with the grand opening of our new facility in San Carlos. I had the pleasure of moderating our expert panel discussion on the market and future of EV infrastructure, featuring seasoned experts Baris Guzel from BMW i Ventures, Sean Saunders from kineo finance, and Lisa Lillelund from Proterra. Here’s a look at some of the insights from the discussion: Sean's perspective shed light on the financial underpinnings essential for scaling early-stage deep-tech companies, reinforcing that high-return investments come with inherent risks. He explained how Kineo Finance's early support for ElectricFish was driven by our innovative integration of energy storage with fast charging. Sean discussed the vital role of debt financing in complementing other funding sources and highlighted the importance of scalable business models. Lisa provided a hands-on view of the practical challenges and opportunities in deploying EV infrastructure. Drawing from her extensive experience with school districts and private fleets, she discussed the impact of federal and state funding, the importance of rapid deployment solutions, and the hurdles of utility approvals. Lisa emphasized the critical role of rapidly-deployable charging solutions in meeting the most critical of customer pain-points, and also shared success stories that highlight the real-world impact of these technologies. Baris's insights underscored the necessity of foresight and strategic alignment in making impactful investments in the EV sector. He emphasized the importance of solid unit economics and viable business models as drivers for the transition, regardless of election outcomes. Baris commented on the responsibility of early-stage companies to identify and mitigate their business risks, and of investors to support portfolio companies through the tough times. A huge thank you to our panelists for their invaluable contributions and to everyone who joined us. If you’re passionate about the future of mobility and clean energy, connect with us. Share your thoughts, join the conversation, and let's drive this transformation together! ⚡ 🚘 🔌 #EVInfrastructure #CleanEnergy #ElectricFish #Innovation #Sustainability #FutureOfMobility

Earlier this month, ⚡ #CalEnergy Chair David Hochschild attended the opening of ElectricFish's new high-tech manufacturing facility in San Carlos, California. 🎉   Supported in part by nearly $2 million 💸 in CEC grants, the new facility will start producing the company’s plug-and-play energy storage systems, 🔌🔋 allowing for fast and reliable electric vehicle charging in communities that lack heavy-duty power infrastructure.    #CleanEnergy #CleanEnergyforall #EV
