About two years ago, Adam Compain and I founded Light to modernize the grid and better support renewables. Huge thanks to Stripe for featuring us alongside these other exciting companies!

I’m hiring Austin-based engineers (and more) to join our talented team. Come join us!

[Stripe @stripe]

There are bps of growth yet to be unlocked in every crevice of the economy. We spoke to a handful of the companies applying emerging technologies to lesser known frontiers:

→ @playdate: bringing joy back to handheld hardware with their crank-operated console
→ @atomic_inc: creating physical goods at the speed of bits
→ Light: building infrastructure for a future powered by renewable energy
→ Katalyst: techwear that intensifies your workout 6x
→ Archistar: accelerating permitting by 50% with AI
→ @Lucid_Bots: drones for dangerous cleaning jobs
→ @sorcerer_earth: collecting 1000x more data points for accurate weather forecasting
→ Masquerade: redefining live theater with immersive technology

@dens It depends on (a) your climate and (b) your home. Happy to run the numbers for you in terms of operating cost and emissions savings between the two options! We built https://t.co/d9hvVz2yeX for air-source, but can also run a ground-source through it for comparison

I had a blast teaming up again with @zeyalater on this piece, check it out!

1/ Founders and company leaders know that customer segmentation is important, but often don’t appreciate *why* it's important.

@bashogry and I wrote a piece on segmentation, and how you’re not thinking about it correctly!

@FollowingThan @clawrence I'd be happy to help you get this done! I'm here in Austin, too, and work with a great contractor. @calvinfo and I built this resource to help, too: https://t.co/d9hvVz2yeX

[Baker Shogry @bashogry]

@clawrence I'm in Austin and am happy to help you get the retrofit done! Heat pumps are excellent here, you can get a better sense using this: https://t.co/d9hvVzk96v

Shoot me a message if you're interested in chatting -- I can walk you through the various options here

[Baker Shogry @bashogry]

@umang @hoverkraft Yep! It's wires. Big whole thing getting funds from various sources to the right places. At least back in 2012, that was a giant spreadsheet that got put together and then phone calls between bank and sponsor (junior associate) to confirm

[Baker Shogry @bashogry]

@umang Spreadsheets, phone calls, and a very anxious associate

[Baker Shogry @bashogry]

If you read that natural gas is the cheaper option, make sure you check the date!

[Heat Pumps, Hooray! @heatpumpshooray]

This story from @NPR over the weekend is on our minds: https://t.co/HOwBpRA4CW

The median U.S. home would have saved *36%* on their annual energy bills with heat pumps vs. their existing equipment in 2021

[Baker Shogry @bashogry]

Way to go, @paolobernasconi !

Hi friends -- @calvinfo and I have been working on this together, check it out!

[Heat Pumps, Hooray! @heatpumpshooray]

Today we’re launching Heat Pumps Hooray: https://t.co/7CLHLU4Uxz

We looked everywhere, and we couldn’t find a tool to understand exactly what savings ($$$ and emissions) you could get in your own home. So, we built one.

Here’s why we did it…

[cdr.fyi @cdr_fyi]

Today we're excited to launch https://t.co/LfzRiPj2V0: a new open reporting platform for high-durability carbon dioxide removal purchases & deliveries

- 540 orders x ~100 buyers, 70 suppliers, 40 marketplaces
