Transforming the
relationship between
people, homes and
the grid.

Our mission is to reduce global carbon emissions by empowering people and utilities with the knowledge and solutions required to shape a brighter, cleaner future.

Why Now?

Energy contributes to 70% of greenhouse emissions, making the energy grid an essential part of decarbonizing the world’s economy. But today’s grid isn’t flexible or smart enough. And it works as a one way street, keeping consumers in the dark without any concrete ways to help.

But The Solution Is Clear

We need to electrify everything and move to renewable resources. To truly gain the benefits of this electrification, we have to turn that one-way street into a two-way highway, where both sides are informed, empowered, and engaged.

We Inform

Customers and utilities with powerful and personalized insights to help them better understand their home energy usage.

We Empower

Them to take action and make smarter decisions to decrease and optimize
energy usage.

We Engage

Them to collaborate and create faster pathways to decarbonization.
