From the early 2000she set the first systems in New York for demand reaction — viewing the grid services possible well .

Mateo went on to start the energy storage unit at Tesla, constructing and starting the Powerwall business. In addition, he helped launch the supercharger enterprise. He ’s working on a new electrochemical battery which may provide storage services for all days, not just hours. The idea is to unlock baseload renewables.

The chemistry has been phased from work from MIT researchers. It’therefore being climbed by a team of entrepreneurs and engineers with deep technical expertise — and such as Mateo, the bumps and bruises that come from scaling a historical sector.

In this interview, Mateo talks about what it required through the early days of battery storage to power, when all sale and installation was a struggle. And now he ’ll talk about what it will take to create Form’therefore storage technology to unlock much more renewable energy.
