Witness the power of collaboration! We teamed up with a leading East Coast utility and have been shifting 500kW-1MW of daily power demand related to charging electric school buses. The test case was conducted to provide the utility confidence that advanced, AI-driven energy management software can be utilized to minimize the impact of commercial #EVfleets on the grid.

Exciting @Google & @LevelTenEnergy product collaboration that’s been quietly cooking for some time. As this product releases to the broader mkt its going to rapidly accelerate large scale renewable deployment.
LevelTen Energy is collaborating with @Google on a new way for #cleanenergy buyers and sellers to enter into power purchase agreements, reducing the time it takes by roughly 80%. We look forward to making this available to more buyers later this year! cloud.google.com/blog/topics…

I'm encouraging our portfolio companies to keep their money at SVB, & encourage you to do the same. It's the safest place to put your money - fully guaranteed with no $250k limit. We (tech/VC's) really need SVB & have a real chance to bring it back or find a friendly home.
New SVB bridge bank CEO doing a zoom session to reassure customers. Good job so far- hope we can keep as much of it intact as possible. He wants to assure people that SVB is not in wind down mode- it’s open for business.

The new SVB CEO holding a conference call now. They are operating and open for business. New and existing deposits there are completely FDIC insured. Insurance applies for all balances with no caps or limitations and would be immediately available if the bank stops operating.

A banking crisis seemingly averted, we can refocus on the unrelenting & even larger climate crisis. There are amazing folks on the SVB team who have been incredible partners to the climate tech community. I hope they can stay together and move forward in some way as our partners.

Like many other #climatetech startups, @LiminalInsights has been affected by the SVB Bank collapse. We founded Liminal Insights, an SVB depositor, in 2016 with a mission to catalyze a clean energy future, with a focus on helping electrify the automotive industry. (1/8)
