Electric Innovation

Congratulations to our 2025 #ElectricInnovationAward Power for All winner, @ridezum! Thank you for your work to create clean, safe, and accessible electrified transportation options for students. We can't wait to see how you continue to empower communities across the country!

@OUSDNews's revolutionary 100% electric bus fleet from @ridezum not only safely takes students to school but creates over 70 portable batteries. This not only lowers pollution but improves grid reliability and grid resiliency!

Watch and learn how @ridezum, @ousdnews, and @PGE4Me have created a vehicle-to-grid system with the nation's first fully electric school bus fleet, creating a cleaner transportation system that supports both the grid and students! youtube.com/watch?v=zI06bm…

This week, we're excited to highlight our 4th #ElectricInnovationAwards winner, @ridezum! Their vehicle-to-grid project with @OUSDNews and @PGE4Me created the nation's 1st electric school bus fleet while also strengthening the grid and improving reliability.

We are excited to recognize the @CityofAtlanta as our first Policy Innovation Award winner! We look forward to seeing how their leadership continues to spur economic development and expand access to electrification solutions for all.

Watch and learn! The City of Atlanta is a perfect example of how local leaders can combine safety, affordability, and accessibility to create people-first electrification policy solutions. youtube.com/watch?v=UXU6Dr…

What if EV charging access was as common as water or electricity? With an estimated need for 45,000 new EV chargers by 2030, the @CityofAtlanta is working to make EV charging options just as accessible as other public utilities through its 2025 EV Readiness Ordinance.

Cities have incredible opportunities to pursue electrification solutions. As our 2025 Policy Innovation winner the @CityofAtlanta is a perfect example of how local investment and policies can make electrification accessible for all. Follow us this week as we highlight their work!

Congratulations again to our inaugural Scale Catalyst Award winner, @ElectrifyAm! We cannot wait to see how your work continues to connect communities, expand EV charging access, and supercharge the American economy!

What does hyper-fast EV charging look like? How can electric grids, especially in rural areas, support it? See how our Scale Catalyst Awardee @ElectrifyAm uses battery storage to expand access to EV charging, support communities & add to grid resiliency. youtube.com/watch?v=XvvTw7…

Did you miss the #ElectricInnovationForum during #ClimateWeek? Don't worry, we've got you covered! Check out our latest post to learn the five things we discussed that you need to know about the future of electrification. linkedin.com/pulse/five-thi…

In addition to expanding charging abilities, they're also connecting communities who have traditionally been excluded from clean energy to electrification solutions that build both economic opportunities and grid resilience. Follow along this week to learn more about their work!

Meet our Scale Catalyst Award winner, @ElectrifyAm! By building hyper-fast EV charging stations with on-site battery energy storage systems (BESS), they are dramatically expanding the EV charging abilities. (1/2)

Please join us again in congratulating our Design & Discovery Award winner, @gradientcomfort! We are thrilled to celebrate your work and look forward to seeing how you continue to drive innovation and people-first electrification solutions.

By using a next generation refrigerant with 95% less environmental impacts than traditional options, @gradientcomfort has created hyper-efficient, affordable heating & cooling units that are good for our communities & planet. Learn more: youtu.be/wtRAcvZ9DDs

Meet our 2025 Design & Discovery Awardee @gradientcomfort! Their affordable, efficient window heat pump revolutionized electric heating and cooling solutions, especially for low-to-moderate income communities. Follow along this week as we share more about their important work!

Meet the people who made the #ElectricInnovationAwards and #ElectricInnovationForum possible. We are grateful to have the expertise and support of leaders across the clean energy, philanthropy, policy, and tech spaces as we bring our vision for an electrified America to life.

Electrification isn't just good for the environment—it's good for everyday Americans, too! The best news? We already have the tools and technologies needed to electrify the economy, create millions of new jobs, and save the average household hundreds of dollars every year.

Great to be at Climate Week in NYC connecting with clean energy leaders like @JigarShahDC and @JayInslee. A highlight was speaking with @SecGranholm at the @ElectricInno Awards about the future of electrification.

We’re honored to receive @ElectricInno’s recognition for our Heavy Duty Electric Trucks Pilot during #NYCClimateWeek 🚚 Showcasing @CityofSeattle’s commitment to tackling hard-to-decarbonize vehicles, improving air quality for frontline communities like the Duwamish Valley 🏞️
