Localized power projects that can operate independently or alongside the main grid are no longer a niche technology. They’re playing an increasingly important role as AI investment explodes. S&P Global estimates that roughly 30 gigawatts of on-site power projects will be needed by 2030 – about a quarter of new data center power demand. That’s opening the door for companies such as Scale. In a few years, EQT-backed Scale Microgrids has gone from developing $5m to $150m power projects for commercial and industrial facilities and universities to completing a single data-center deal that tripled its revenue....Show more

Accurate intel from S&P Global here - distributed energy providers, including Scale, are indeed finding a "substantial foothold" in the data center space.

Amid all of these changes, it was so important (and fun!) to come together to align as a company around how we're going to continue pushing forward with a mission that feels more important than ever: let's power the world with distributed energy! 💪 ⚡...Show more

Since June, New Jersey businesses have seen major increases in their peak electricity usage rates - and more rate hikes are on the way. But there's good news to go along with the bad news: 👎The bad news: The regional supply crunch driving these increases isn't going to ease anytime soon, with surging demand from data centers and manufacturing bumping up against a clogged interconnection queue for new generation in the PJM market. 🙌 The good news: Battery storage offers a ready solution to cut costs today and guard against future rate hikes, while also enhancing your resilience - AND new state-level battery incentives are on the way from the New Jersey BPU to make them an even better deal. Scale recently hosted a webinar to talk about the good, the bad, and the batteries, and we're working with customers in New Jersey to help them take advantage of this opportunity ASAP. Read our recap below and check out the webinar recording if you missed it!...Show more
