In today’s show I’d like to welcome John Powers to the show — John is the CEO and Founder of Elexity, a commercial building control system that is a complement to solar installations. John’s company turns commercial buildings into flexible distributed energy resources with a one-day installation process. By controlling flexible building loads, Elexity mimics a battery at an equivalent cost of $50/kWh of capacity – a 10X improvement in storage economics. John discusses the trends in electrification, how are they affecting commercial buildings and facilities, what the biggest ROI opportunities are, and what building managers can do right now with a) the least amount of effort and b) see an ROI in the shortest amount of time
