EnergyHub

From the big screen to the trails of Prospect Park, we spent a Climate Week NYC afternoon looking at climate action from new perspectives. We started with a screening of "The Little Town That Could," a film about how one New York community is putting decarbonization into practice, followed by a conversation with the filmmakers about lessons for effective local advocacy. Then we crossed the street into Prospect Park with the WILD BIRD FUND to explore Brooklyn's wildlife and urban ecosystems, a reminder that the natural world we're working to protect is right in our backyard. Thank you to everyone who joined us! #ClimateWeekNYC #ClimateAction #CleanEnergy

Climate work is powered by the relationships built in spaces like this one. Last week, EnergyHub helped bring together women and non-binary leaders from across the climate community for the Women and Climate Week NYC Happy Hour, an evening of connections and new ideas that will fuel the work ahead. Julie Potyraj, EnergyHub's Director of Brand and Content, shared a few remarks alongside Susan McPherson ✨ of McPherson Strategies. Thank you to Women and Climate and everyone who joined us for making it a great night. #ClimateWeekNYC #WomenInTech #ClimateTech

A conversation that started at #DTECH is continuing behind the mic. EnergyHub’s Max B. joins Emma Heins of Advanced Energy United, Kari Gehrke of Alliant Energy, and Bartlett Jackson of Sunrun to discuss what it takes to move distributed energy resources from pilots to dependable, scalable grid resources. The conversation explores the practical realities of scaling virtual power plants, including utility partnerships, customer participation, dispatch performance, data visibility, market design, and compensation. As utilities navigate rising demand, extreme weather, aging infrastructure, and affordability pressures, the panel examines how customer-owned resources can help improve reliability, reduce peaks, strengthen resilience, and deliver value for both customers and the grid.

Honored to be recognized by Energize Capital as one of the Top 30 Innovators of Electrify Everything 2026 in the Demand Flexibility category. We’re proud to be included alongside organizations helping advance a more flexible, reliable, and electrified energy future. Thank you to Energize Capital for the recognition and to our utility partners, customers, and team members who make this work possible.

The conversation around grid flexibility isn’t about virtual power plants or traditional grid infrastructure. It’s about using the right resource, in the right place, at the right time. That was a key theme from our #ClimateWeekNYC panel, “Fairness, flexibility, and the future of the grid,” moderated by Erika Diamond. As electricity demand grows, distributed flexibility can help utilities respond faster and more cost-effectively. Three ideas stood out: speed matters, market economics need to evolve, and customers should share in the value they help create. Thank you to Ben Hertz-Shargel, Brett Lotito, and Joshua Tom for bringing perspectives from regulation, energy markets, and utility operations, and to everyone who joined the discussion. #ClimateWeek #virtualpowerplants #gridflexibility

How can we unlock more value from the distributed energy resources already connected to the grid? Our CRO Erika Diamond joined Advanced Energy Group to discuss demand flexibility, customer participation, and how the industry can scale proven approaches to meet evolving grid needs. Catch the conversation below.

What does it take to turn distributed resources into reliable grid capacity? That’s one of the questions our CRO Erika Diamond will explore at Latitude Media’s Flex Summit, sharing practical lessons from EnergyHub’s work with utilities across North America. If you’re attending, join the session to hear how utilities are putting flexibility to work in the real world. #FlexSummit #virtualpowerplants #DERs

Heading to Climate Week NYC? We’ve helped make planning a little easier. Our Climate Week guide brings together the events we’re hosting, along with some of the conversations across the city we're most excited to follow. From virtual power plants and battery storage to data center demand, grid modernization, and the broader energy transition, Climate Week will be packed with opportunities to connect, learn, and share ideas. We’ll be hosting a live panel on the future of grid flexibility, a documentary screening, and a wildlife walk through Prospect Park. We'll also be joining discussions and events throughout the week with industry leaders, policymakers, utilities, and technology innovators.

What will it take to meet rising electricity demand without compromising affordability or equity? During Climate Week NYC, EnergyHub’s Erika Diamond will moderate a live discussion with Ben Hertz-Shargel from New Jersey Board of Public Utilities, Brett Lotito from David Energy, and Joshua Tom at National Grid on the role of grid flexibility and virtual power plants as electricity demand continues to grow. Together, they'll explore how utilities, regulators, and energy providers are tackling this challenge today, where VPPs are already delivering value, and what it will take to scale flexibility for the benefit of both customers and the grid. Join us in New York on Tuesday, September 22 at 10:30 a.m., ET for the conversation, followed by lunch and networking. Space is limited.
