To accelerate the collective path to climate, energy, and societal equilibriums.
Our take
Amidst the rapid growth of renewable energy across global power grids, there is an urgent demand for effective energy storage and portfolio management solutions. Equilibrium Energy is stepping onto the stage to tackle this challenge, combining energy expertise with advanced technology to navigate the complexities of increasingly dynamic and volatile power markets.
Centered on grid-scale battery deployments and broader portfolio optimization, Equilibrium partners with developers and operators to address pivotal financing and operational gaps, as seen in its landmark 100MW battery tolling agreement in Texas with Jupiter Power. This integrated approach helps energy companies and independent power producers maximize performance, efficiency, and profitability across diverse assets.
Recently the company closed a $28M funding round led while launching its flagship software platform, EQ Mission Control™. The platform unifies fragmented data and systems, allowing real-time, AI-powered portfolio optimization and decision-making. By embedding augmented intelligence throughout its workflows, EQ Mission Control™ helps customers unlock unprecedented insights, maximize returns, and manage risk across batteries, renewables, and other energy assets.
