Believer in flexible demand! CEO of @OhmConnect, created PACE financing, energy geek, climate activist, and sometime optimist. Always an @athletics fan.
Big news week for @ohmconnect and the #VPP industry. More on our giant announcement with @Google and @sidewalkinfra soon.
Today, a short video of my talk for @EmCollective. "Will you please join me. So I can pay you. To save the world."

@bradplumer@OhmConnect controls 250k+ smart devices (tstats, fridges, EVs, etc.) and have adjusted or cycled them more than 40M times. No backlash! Customers can always override and they get rewarded for their participation. Most customers get 50+ events a year.
Meet our integrated smart home ecosystem with LG. We’ve blended the ThinQ app w/ OhmConnect so LG customers can earn rewards automatically by adjusting their AC use flexibly, improving grid reliability & helping save even more money on energy bills. https://t.co/MLa9vqVViv
Rather than subsidizing natural gas interests, it would be cheaper, faster & cleaner to install dispatchable load rather than dispatchable supply.
Natgas power plants take many years to build b/c they need to get air pollution permits (for their emissions) & water (for cooling).
In spite of repeated heat waves and threats of power outages, there is a big, new, and bold environmental goal in California, and it probably isn’t what you’d expect. Read the latest from OhmConnect's CEO @ciscodv on the blog: https://t.co/lJTWaLcknb
Hey ya'll, looks like the California grid is pretty tight until about 8pm tonight. Good time for everyone to power down some stuff and put off that laundry/ dishwasher.
Reminder that if you were an @ohmconnect member, you'd get paid for this!

@RicOConnell8 @California_ISO It was strange how quickly things deteriorated from normal. The EEA announcement was issued a few minutes after it started.

From the @NYTimes:
"[T]he A’s are Oakland’s team as much as Fisher’s...Go ahead and watch the All-Star Game. Try to enjoy it. Just don’t get so caught up in the fairy tale that you forget the scar that baseball has wreaked upon itself."
