Our CEO, Alain P Steven, recently shared his perspective at the 6th US Leaders Discussion—part of the International Climate Webinar Series. In this session on MHDV Fleet Charging & Grid Integration, Alain discusses the "duck curve" and why storage is the ultimate shock absorber for our energy systems.
By leveraging battery storage, we can capture excess solar power and smooth out peak demand from high-power fleet charging. Alain was joined by industry experts Lex Forsyth, Nick McNulty, Natalie Buscemi, and John Markowitz to explore how we can turn these grid challenges into real-world opportunities for clean mobility.
A special thank you to our hosts, Greater Washington Region Clean Cities Coalition (GWRCCC) - Antoine M. Thompson and EVENT ONE SOLUTIONS INTERNATIONAL - Salima Hebbache Steven, for organizing such a strategic and valuable conversation.

AI Meets the Power Grid: A $24.5M Bet on the Future of Data Centers
What if data centers didn’t just consume energy—but actually helped stabilize the grid? One startup has just secured $24.5 million from some of the biggest names in tech and venture capital to make that vision real. Their AI-driven platform promises to cut grid connection times, slash peak power usage, and even pave the way for more renewable energy adoption—without sacrificing computing performance.
Backed by Nvidia’s venture arm and tested in collaboration with industry giants, this breakthrough could turn one of the world’s most energy-hungry sectors into a powerful ally for a cleaner, more reliable energy future.
