We're less than a month out. No fluff panels. Just the people actually building shit. Join us: dertaskforce.com/p/dervos-20…
BIG UPDATE: DERVOS 2026 has a new date and location.
This year’s DERVOS will now be on 11/5 at the Duggal Greenhouse in the Brooklyn Navy Yard. The new space is incredible and the show we’re pulling together is going to be a blast.
Learn more below:
"The IRA subsidy landscape did a lot less for the energy world than the AI infrastructure build ever will" @itsanhonour_
@Melt_Dem @CrucibleCap
"If you look at all the winners in the current AI infrastructure build out, they're bitcoin miners."
Had a blast with @itsanhonour_ @Melt_Dem of @CrucibleCap talking about their thesis on the intersection of Energy, Compute, and Capital Markets

Today on Volts: I talk with @James_McGinniss of @TheDavidEnergy about "plug-in DERs," which require no permissions or permits. He's selling plug-in batteries to small businesses in NYC, simply to reduce their bills, & he is *extremely* bullish on the future of this category.
Distributed energy, at least when grid-connected, has always required extensive permission from the local utility and government.
But there’s a new class of distributed energy resources that don’t need an interconnection agreement or permit.
Check it the discussion on this from DERVOS 2025 here:

On the same day @realDonaldTrump makes clear he intends for hyperscalers to bring their own power, we’ve posted the discussion on that very topic from DERVOS 2025 featuring:
@Google
@Tesla
@VicShao (a legendary DER entrepreneur)
@ScaleMicrogrids

The Sun is the limit.
Even if there were another source that could compare in abundance, we still couldn't use more energy than we get from the Sun.
The limit is not how much energy we can get, but how much energy Earth can get rid of (via radiation).
We can use other energy sources, but every joule of heat we generate has to be balanced by a joule of sunlight we reject.
We can either harness the power of the Sun, or reject it.

Did you know that 1/2 the cost of power in the US is transmission & distribution? With solar, you don't have to move power around.☀️Solar energy = wireless fusion power. h/t @JessePeltan @DER_Task_Force

Anyone on here live in NYC and participate in Con Ed's "Smart usage partner" program? (basically a demand response program)? Curious which partner you went with and about your experience! (CC @DER_Task_Force?)
